Alessandro Rondoni was born in Terdobbiate, in the province of Novara in 1841. He enrolled at the Accademia Albertina in Turin, where he trained under the guidance of the naturalist sculptor Vincenzo Vela.
In these years he was commissioned to create a monument dedicated to the Marignoli family from Spoleto in Perugia; among his works, there is also a medallion depicting the benefactor Pasquale Biroli, who upon his death in 1830 donated some buildings to the Maggiore hospital in Novara to be converted into buildings for the care of the sick. He took part in various exhibitions, including the Turin promotor of 1860, where he brought a Head of a Putto; in 1873, he presented the first version of his very elegant Sira, in marble and bronze, at the Universal Exhibition in Vienna, of which we have evidence in the words of the architect Camillo Boito. The sculpture was so successful that the artist was awarded an "Art Medal" by the Commission. In 1879, the chronicle of the time indicates that he was exhibited in Rome with the works Amore, Fauna and Modestia, and then exhibited the sculptural group Canestro di nozze, exhibited in 1884, and Lezione and Sogno d’Amore exhibited in 1898. Unfortunately, after this date there is no more official news of Rondoni.
