V roce 1836 odcestoval do Florencie, kde zhotovil rytiny portrétů Raphaela a Masaccia a rytiny obrazů Perugina a Leonarda da Vinciho. V roce 1837 byl jmenován ředitelem školy rytců v Bruselu a stal se rytířem řádu Čestné legie. Po sjednocení Itálie do konce svého života působil jako profesor rytiny v Miláně.
