In 1719, Panini was admitted to the Congregazione dei Virtuosi al Pantheon. He taught in Rome at the Accademia di San Luca and the Academie de France, where he influenced Jean-Honore Fragonard. In 1754, he served as the principal of the Accademia di San Luca.

Most of his works, specially those of ruins have a substantial fanciful and unreal embellishment characteristic of capriccio themes.
