He visited Rome in 1923 and remained there for the next four years, participating in the Biennale of Rome in 1925 and the Biennale of Venice in 1926. Afterward, he lived in Paris and Milan.

The title of the family is Visconti di Modrone, old Milanese nobility. Luchino Visconti, conte di Lonate Pozzolo, was a very peculiar mixture of aristocratic character and politically leftist views. Very interesting paintings of an almost forgotten artist!
