Giovanni Martino Spanzotti (c. 1455 – c. 1528) (also known as Gian Martino Spanzotti) was an Italian painter of the late-Quattrocento or early-Renaissance in Lombardy.
He was born in Casale Monferrato and died in Chivasso. Little is known of his life. Born into a family of painters from Varese, he likely apprenticed with his father, Pietro. He appears to have had contacts with either Francesco del Cossa or his works. Other influences are Zanetto Bugatto and Vincenzo Foppa. Spanzotti painted between 1480 and 1498 in the Piedmont, as well as in Casale Monferrato and Vercelli.
His pupils included il Sodoma and Defendente Ferrari.
