Marco Calderini wrote of him: "Admirer and follower of Fontanesi, he had the feeling that transpires from some of his impressions".

Among his best works are mentioned: Nude study; Banks of the Po; Garden; The dictation and various studies preserved in the Civic Museum of Turin; The gallant secretary; Noon; Madonna; St. Louis; Laundresses; Grazing; Master's toilet; The beach of Albenga; On the banks of the Po near Turin; The little dead girl.
