In addition to Paul's answer. If you are using fig, ax = plt.subplots() , you could use figure type hint. See below example:

from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.axes._axes as axes
import matplotlib.figure as figure

fig, ax = plt.subplots()  # type:figure.Figure, axes.Axes
ax.
fig.
