    A self-taught artist, Pierre Ambrogiani drew with dexterity. His friends (M. Pagnol, J. Giono, R. Charmet, A. Verdet, R. Barotte, ...) were unanimous to speak about his intense work filled with luminosity.

    He participated in major exhibitions: Paris (1946), New York (1947), ... and was very often rewarded - Peintres Témoins de leur temps (Grand Prix 1967), - Prix du Gemmail en 1968 (consacré "Peintre de Lumière") - Prix international (Menton 1951). In 1973, the city of Marseille organized a jubilee exhibition to great his fifty year long career.
