There, he produced works such as The Widow and The Betrayed, which were exhibited in Catania and purchased by the City Government.
Sciuti's career expanded through Naples, Genoa, and Rome, where he specialized in various themes:
- Genre and Patriotic Themes: Including works like You mothers of the country and An episode during the sack of Catania.
