He studied under Lorenzo Bartolini in Florence. In 1826, he completed with the collaboration of Ottavio Giovannozzi the design of the Fountain of the Naiads in Empoli. In 1834, he completed a bust of Maria Antonietta of Bourbon, sister of Ferdinand II of Naples, and second wife of Leopold II the Granduke of Tuscany.
