In 1674-5 he painted a series of frescoes in the church of San Giorgio in Salerno, and visited Naples at around the same time. He worked in collaboration with his son, Francesco, on the Vision of St Cyril of Alexandria at the church of San Domenico in Solofra.
He later worked at Sarno, where he painted the vaults and other pictures at the cathedral.
