"We all have stories,” Salvati says, "and I like telling them".

He made his debut at the Florence Promotrice in 1884 with a life study.

After his military service in Milan between 1888-1891, Tommasi and his brother Angiolo frequented the cultural circle that gravitated around Giacomo Puccini at Torre del Lago, and it was here that he came into contact with several exponents of the Tuscan artistic avant-garde, including Galileo Chini and Oscar Ghiglia.
