Italian painter associated with the Macchiaioli group. Around 1850 he attended the Caffè Michelangelo without being a regular member. In 1852 he decorated there the rooms used by the artists with two mural paintings, Tramonto (sunset) and Ruins with the Moon. His compositions are similar to those of Odoardo Borrani up to the point that some of them were attributed to the latter. In the period 1861-62 he regularly visited Castiglioncello where he painted several views. //
