Visconti was born in Milan, Italy. A student of the Parma Jesuit school, he joined the Society of Jesus in 1702, in spite of his family opposition. After the usual spiritual formation and Philo-Theological training, Visconti was a teacher of Letters for twenty years. In addition, he was professor of Philosophy in Milan. In his spiritual ministry he was giving special attention to the strengthening of the Marian Congregations (nowadays known as the Christian life community). For three years (1732–35) he was provincial of Milan. In 1737 he was called to Rome as Assistant of Franz Retz for the Italian affairs of the Society.
