Salesio Lugli was born in Capri in 1869. He was probably the son of the painter Albano Lugli. He possessed an atelier in his hometown of Capri, where some of his works are exhibited at the Museo Civico "Giulio Ferrari" and the Museo del Palazzo dei Pio. He worked in Paris from around 1900, producing several sculptures in bronze and ivory, pewter and porcelain (Ceramic-Terracotta). He is known for his historical models (French Revolution, Napoleonic war: esp the "Veille de Wagram" bronze lamp) and for his art nouveau maidens. He exhibited twice at the Société des Artistes Français. Around 1906, he became director of the ceramics firm known as the Société des grés de Charenton L.M. Barthe and Mettais-Cartier, sided at Charenton-le-Pont, in the Seine valley to the south-east of Paris. He collaborated with the artists Carmelo Cernigliari-Melilli, Aristide de Ranieri, Affortunato Gory and Ezio Sighieri. Lugli returned to Italy following the outbreak of the First World War and, in 1915, he was made knight of the Ordine della Corona d'Italia. Lugli died in 1936
