Giuseppe Calcia (active 1725) (also called Il Genovesino) was an Italian painter, born in the Piedmont. He should not be confused with the Milanese painter Marco Genovesini. Giuseppe painted altar-pieces for the churches of Turin and Alessandria. He painted a ' St. Dominic' and ' St. Thomas Aquinas ' for the church of the Dominicans at Turin.
