During this period he was enlisted as master in the Antwerp Guild of St. Luke. He then moved to Genoa where he lived for many years. He executed a large number of religious works for churches of which many have been lost, and peasant scenes for the palaces of the rich. Antonio Maria Vassallo was one of his pupils.
He later moved to Florence and finally to Rome where he died at the age of 45.
