Giulio Cesare Milani (c. 1621 – 1678) was an Italian painter of the Baroque.

He was born in Bologna, where he was a pupil of Simone Cantarini and Flaminio Torre. He executed many works for the churches in Bologna and the adjacent cities. He painted a Marriage of the Virgin for the church of San Giuseppe; a Sant'Antonio di Padova for the church of Santa Maria del Castello; and a Holy Family with St. John for the church of the Servi.
