In 1861, he painted a series of over two dozen large canvases for a Galleria Dantesca about Dante and his works, most of which were exhibited initially in the Palazzo Altieri in Rome, but later when on tour, including to London. [2] He was helped in the planning by Romualdo Gentilucci, and coloring by Vincenzo Paliotti, Guerra, and professor Alfonso Chierici. [3] He helped fresco the palace (destroyed) and villa of Count Torlonia in Rome. A collection of his works is on display in the Palazzo Comunale of San Severino. [4]
His adopted daughter, Luisa Martignoni Bigioli, was also a painter. [5] [6]
