A sculptor of public monuments in bronze and marble, Giuseppe Moretti was born in Siena Italy on February 3, 1857. At the age of nine he began training with Tito Sarrocchi who taught him to carve in marble, his favorite medium. Moretti stayed with Sarrocchi until he was fifteen. In 1879 Moretti established a studio in Agram, Croatia but left in 1880 when an earthquake destroyed his studio and temporarily injured him.
