He trained as a pupil of Baldassare Franceschini. He painted mainly religious works in local churches, including the church of Sant’Andrea, San Pietro, San Francesco, San Giusto, and San Michele. He was buried in the church of the Ospedale.[2] Arrhigi painted an altarpiece of Saints Antonio da Padua, Dominic, Thomas Acquinas, and Francis of Assisi for the Pieve of Santa Maria at Chianni.[3] He also painted a St Anthony of Padua for the Cathedral of Volterra.[4]
