Early in his youth, he lost his left eye, when a drop of quicklime fell into it while he drank from a fountain. Nonetheless, he showed a precocious aptitude for design and completed studies at the fine art school of his hometown. After the death of his father in 1925, he moved to Milan. Despite some initial difficulties, he eventually gained a post at the Mauzan-Morzenti Agency. Over the next few years, he produced posters, illustrated fashion magazines and gained fame for his sensuous renderings of the female form. In 1932 he moved to Paris where he participated in the Salon des Indépendants, that same year. After moving back to Milan he created illustrations for many Italian periodicals and designed book covers for publishers Mondadori and Rizzoli'. He died in Milan, from bronchitis and pleurisy, in 1952.
