Born to a wealthy Milanese family, Praga destroyed himself largely through alcohol and drugs after his father's death plunged the family into poverty. He had been a painter before turning to poetry with Tavolozza (1862). He became a leading presence in the Milanese Scapigliatura, writing its artistic manifesto with Camillo Boito in 1864. He published stories and libretti, as well as the poems of Penombre (1864) and Fiabe e leggende (1867). A novel, Memorie di un presbiterio, was completed after his death by Roberto Sacchetti.
