Pietro Paltronieri (1673–1741) was an Italian painter of the late Baroque period, active mainly in Rome, Bologna, and Vienna.

He was a pupil of Giovanni Francesco Cassana and Marcantonio Chiarini. In quadratura, he collaborated with Ercole Graziani the Younger. He was known as Il Mirandolese dalle Prospettive to distinguish him from his contemporary fellow countryman, Giuseppe Perracini. Both had studied together with Giovanni Francesco Cassana in Modena, prior to moving to Bologna.
