able to visit Rome to study arts. One of his most notable masterpieces is
Rizpah which he completed there.
He took part in many local exhibitions in Florence.
Afterwards, he came back to his native city and became a professor in the Institute
of Fine Arts Designer Polite. He was a master of fine art and used to use
