Career
He trained under Camillo Procaccini, and traveled with him to Reggio Emilia. Over time, his style came to resemble the work of Annibale and Ludovico Carracci. He painted for the church of San Prospero in Reggio and in the residence of the Signore Giovanni Casotti.
Outside Reggio, his work can be found at San Pellegrino outside of Porta Castello.
He also painted many procession banners, a field in which he competed with Sisto Badalocchio. There he found heavy competition, and so returned to Reggio, where he painted a Virgin of the Annuciation with a choir of angels for the church of Santi Giacomo e Filippo.
