Agnolo Gaddi (born c. 1350, active 1369-1396, died 1396) was an Italian painter. He was the son and pupil of the painter Taddeo Gaddi.

Taddeo Gaddi, was himself the major pupil of the Florentine master Giotto. Agnolo was an influential and prolific artist who was the last major Florentine painter stylistically descended from Giotto.

His work includes frescoes in the choir of Santa Croce in Florence as well as:

* Madonna Enthroned with Saints and Angels (1380/1390), tempera on panel. Triptych, possibly commissioned for a Cistercian monastery.
* The Coronation of the Virgin (c.1380-90), tempera on wood. This painting is probably the central panel of an altarpiece, possibly from the church of San Giovanni de' Fieri near Pisa.
* Madonna of Humility with Angels (mid 1390s), tempera on panel
* Crucifixion (no date), tempera on wood. Part of a polyptych.

Giorgio Vasari included a biography of Agnolo Gaddi in his Lives of the Most Excellent Painters, Sculptors, and Architects.
