Artist, Author. Studied in Florence and Milan. He painted historical subjects to begin with but after studying the work of Rossetti and other Pre-Raphaelites his work became spiritual. During the late 1880's he adopted Divisionism (separation of colour into dots or patches applied directly to the canvas). During his lifetime his work was exhibited throughout Europe. He also wrote several books on theory and technique of painting.
