He began his training in the studio of Filippino Lippi. His early work features the sharp lines and detailed drapery characteristic of his master. As his career progressed, he absorbed the softer influences of Perugino. He achieved a balance between the decorative traditions of the 15th century and the emerging clarity of the High Renaissance. His figures often possess a quiet, thoughtful quality. He applied paint with a disciplined technique that preserved the clarity of his initial drawings.

His art is suited to contemporary interiors because of its human scale and composed atmosphere. Collectors often seek his devotional scenes for their domestic spaces. The Mystic Marriage of Saint Catherine provides a window into the private religious life of Renaissance Florence. These prints offer a way to bring the balance of 16th-century Italian art into a modern room. The clear colour and balanced figures are characteristic of his mature style.
