Biography

Monteverde was born in Bistagno, Italy and studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome. He later became a professor there.[1] Among his students were Yulia Brazol, Lola Mora and Victor de Pol, who both developed significant public work in Buenos Aires.

He was made an Officer in the Legion d'Honneur in 1878 and an Italian Senator in 1889. He died in Rome in 1917, five days shy of his 80th birthday.[1]
