B. was born in Udine in 1793 to Francesco and Giulia Piccoli, a woman of great culture and intelligence who maintained friendly relations with Antonio Canova. After studying in Bologna at the Barnabite college, where he met Massimo d'Azeglio, he returned to his homeland and began to dedicate himself to art under the guidance of Voit (Baldissera, 1982). He completed his first training in Vienna, and later went to Rome to the sculptor Canova, who welcomed him into his entourage thanks to the good offices of his mother. He dedicated himself to painting and sculpture; in Rome he left the group of Moses saved from the waters to adorn the Pincio fountain and some busts of illustrious men for the Capitoline Protomoteca. The Civic Museums of Udine conserve the plaster depicting a lying Child with a bunch of grapes, presumably dating back to 1855, when the city news reports the artist's commitment in this sense (Visentin). It is a sculpture that highlights the abandonment of the late neoclassical stylistic features, recognizable in other works by the d. B., in favor of a naturalism still tinged with romantic ideals. Equally well known is his commitment to the landscape genre, where he shows himself to be indebted to Nordic painting, and in particular to the models offered by artists such as Martin Verstappen and Hendrick Voogd - the latter cited by the sources in relation to d. B. –, attended in Rome during the period of his residence in the city (Visentin). These suggestions can also be found in his works which are preserved in the Civic Museums of Udine, among which are a Night Fire and the two canvases depicting the Roman countryside, one of which was brought to the attention of the Friulian public in 1855 in occasion of the fine arts exhibition organized that year in the city. He was among the first to try his hand at lithographic technique, using which he created some views of Rome. In the City he became advisor to Pius IX, took care of the arrangement of the Vatican Museums and designed some important urban interventions such as the promenade of S. Pietro in Montorio, the gardens that flank the Capitoline Hill and those of Piazza S. Marco. In 1834 he met the very young Giacinta Simonetti, Marchioness of Gavignano, whom he wanted to marry immediately, a marriage which was opposed by her grandmother, his guardian. The latter proposed the removal of one year and d. B. decided to undertake a journey that took him across the Balkan peninsula to Constantinople. From there, by sailing boat, he visited the coasts and islands of the eastern Mediterranean, reaching as far as Syria and Egypt. He then returned to Rome, bringing with him precious drawings and watercolors depicting the places he visited, and was able to marry the woman he had fallen in love with. With his family he resided mostly in the Eternal City, but was often in Friuli in Brazzacco or Soleschiano, in the villa inherited through his mother, where he distinguished himself for the administration of his land assets in which he introduced modern management methods which earned him the title of first class member of the Friulian Agricultural Academy. He died in Rome in 1877. Father of Pietro, well-known explorer of the French Congo and founder of its capital Brazzaville, and of Giacomo, d.
