Biography

He was a pupil of Giovanni Battista Piazzetta.[1] He painted the main altarpiece for the Church of Sant'Agostino in Treviso, depicting a Virgin and Child with St Augustine and the Blessed Girolamo Miani. Miani was one of the founders of the Order of Somaschi priests. He also painted for the same church, a Guardian Angel and Glory of St Joseph with Saint Anne and the Holy Family. For the church of San Lorenzo in Treviso, he painted a St Anthony Abbott.[2]
