Born in Lombardy, he first trained with Federigo Panza,[1] then moved to study painting in the studio of the Neapolitan painter Francesco Solimena.

In the church of San Pietro in Verzolo in Pavia, above the altar, there is a canvas depicting the Virgin and Child with Saint Bernard, dated 1713, and in the church of San Giovanni Domnarum the altarpiece with Saint Andrew.

He painted frescos for the Palazzo Modigliani in Lodi, the Palazzo Brentano of Corbetta, where other artists such as Mattia Bortoloni, Giovanni Angelo Borroni, Giovanni Antonio Cucchi, and Ferdinando Porta, were working.

He helped fresco, along with Cucchi, the ceiling for the Church of San Francesco of Assisi in Brescia.

He also painted the altarpiece for the main altar with the Virgin and child with St Zeno, Rusticiano, and Vincenzo de Paoli for the church of San Zeno al Foro of Brescia.
