As a student of his brother Giovanni Antonio, he later finished his education in Rome, where he also worked with M. Caffà and created Caritas for the tomb of Pope Alexander VII . Among the most important interpreters of the Baroque in Siena, he showed in the later works a more pronounced notable inclination towards neoclassicism , which was in part taken up by his nephew Bartolomeo, son of Giovanni Antonio.
