Biography
Member of a noble family, still flourishing, who traced his origins to a nearby village of Pisa, after graduating in law, he turned to painting following the example of his older brother Francesco. He came into contact with postmacchiaioli painters, with whom he practiced on rural and countryside subjects, mainly drawn from the Tuscan landscape. During his trip to Paris in 1878, he had the opportunity to learn about Edgar Degas's research, expanding his repertoire with new themes from urban life and equestrian subjects. Constantly linked to macchiaioli painting, he specialized in executing Maremma landscapes characterized by the presence of animals, with which he distinguished himself at the Venice Art Exhibition in 1887 and the 1889 Exposition Universelle in Paris. Toward the end of the century, he went to paint with his brother on the Adriatic coast. He participated in major Italian exhibitions of the early 20th century, notably the 1911 Universal Exposition in Rome.
