He is considered "one of the first exponents of the Mannerist style" in paintings. De Magistris worked for a long time under Cardinal Giovanni Evangelista Pallotta, who largely contributed to the renovation of Caldarola in the Marche. A Pietà is on display in the Pinacoteca Civica Scipione Gentili of San Ginesio in the Marche.
