In his day, he was one of the best-known painters of his generation, a reputation hard won after a difficult apprenticeship in Francesco Guardi's studio, followed by a change of style as a pupil of Simonini. A pre-romantic painter, his reputation was such that Giacomo was recognized as the brother of the great painter, and his clients included the Prince de Condé and Catherine II of Russia. A dissolute life led him to squander his fortune and die in poverty.
