He was associated with the late Baroque and early Neoclassical movements, reflecting the transitional period in European art during the 18th century. Cedini was known for his religious and historical compositions, which were characterized by their dramatic use of light and meticulous attention to detail. He studied under the tutelage of Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, which significantly influenced his artistic development.
