He studied with Adriano Cecioni, then, recommended by Telemaco Signorini, he dedicated himself not only to sculpture but also to painting. He formed, therefore, alongside Macchiaioli and made his debut very early, exhibiting six small landscapes at the Promotrice of Florence in 1888. He continued annually to present paintings and statues there. From 1891 to 1895 he followed the Divisionist school and painted, among other things, In riva all'Arno and Mattino sul mare. In 1897 he exhibited two large pastel female portraits at the Internationale of art and flowers in Florence and then oriented himself towards large figures, often with an allegorical meaning. In 1898 he appeared in Turin with Dolore. Then he participated in the Venetian Biennials with La vergognosa (1899), Il Silenza (1901), the Portrait of Irma Gramatica, pastel (1903), Sera, drawing (1905). He then came to the main Italian and foreign exhibitions in Brussels, Munich, Vienna, London, Saint Louis, Buenos Aires. With his scratched, borderless drawings, he has collaborated in magazines and newspapers (La Fiammetta, No-vissima, L'Italia ride, La Domenica dell'Avanti, La Liguria ligure, Numero, Gil Blas and Cocoricò dì Parigi). In 1905 he was appointed director of the civic painting school of Pavia. In the early period Pavia was particularly interested in sculpture, especially bronze plaques, a genre that he cultivated for a long time. After 1913, thanks to the experience acquired with the studies on Divisionism and mindful of the research of colors and light of the early years, he returned to deal with landscape and from then until his death the campaign was a continuous source of inspiration, especially after 1920 when he started working in Fauglia, on the Pisan hills (The washerwomen, Under the olive tree, In the shadow of the Carob tree, Dusty road). The portraits also belong to his last production (Portrait of the Marquis Quaratesi). In 1922 he exhibited in Florence at the Fiorentina Spring and until 1936 several times in Pavia. In 1936, finishing his teaching at the school of painting, many works were purchased by the Municipality of Pavia and are located in the museum of that city. From 1937 to 1943 he lived in Florence, exhibiting in various solo shows in Florence itself and also in Lucca and Livorno. In 1947 an exhibition of his works was opened at the Galleria Geri in Milan. Retiring to Fauglia with his family in 1943, he died in his villa in Poggio alla Farnia on February 15, 1948. His works can be found in the Modern Art Galleries of Venice, Florence, Lima (Peru) and in the Museum of Brussels. Many are in private collections in Pavia, Milan, where in the Turri Collection there is a Girl's Head, in Genoa, Florence. He engraved some drypoint plates. -
