Stefano Celesti (active after 1635) was an Italian painter of the late-Baroque, active mainly in Venice and territories on the mainland.
He was born in Venice (or possibly Istria), the son of the Baroque Venetian painter Andrea Celesti. He was active in Istria, Brescia, and near Lago di Garda. In 1638 he painted a St Mark for the Cathedral of Koper. Two years later, he executed the portrait of the priest Pasquale da Rovigno for the Franciscan Refectory in the monastery of Sant'Anna in the same town, now in Gemona. In 1659, he painted a Madonna del Carmelo for the parish church of Verbosca . He worked with Pietro Bellotto in Koper, painting a Mystery of the Rosary and Last Supper.
For the church of Church of S. Antonio Abate in Sasso, in Gargnano, he painted a Madonna of the Rosary in 1658.
