He was the son of painter Vincenzo, and older brother of Achille Petrocelli. He first studied under his father. Among his major works are: La colomba insidiata nel nido, Un bacio furtivo; Selvaggina; and Il giuoco delle Nocciuole (Neapolitan Costume scene, displayed at the Promotrice). He completed many still lifes and costume dramatizations, painting in pastel and water-colors.[1]
