Son of a modest schoolteacher, Léon Lhermitte enrolled at the Imperial Drawing School and moved to Paris in 1863. He was a student of both Lecoq de Boisbaudran.
He debuted at the Salon des Artistes Français in 1864, where he obtained a third class medal in 1874, a second class medal in 1880, and the Grand Prix at the Universal Exhibition of 1889.
He was decorated with the Legion of Honor in 1884, promoted to officer by 1894, then commander by 1911, and elected member of the Institute by 1905.
He commenced working with charcoal and his work revealed a deep feeling for nature. Then, once he moved on to canvases, the world discovered him a beautiful landscaper as well as a skillful draftsman.
His works almost exclusively show scenes of rural life, but unlike Millet, whose influence is very present, he prefers the picturesque element to synthetic translation.
He was an early adopter of “light painting” made fashionable by the research of the Impressionists.

In parallel to his studies of architecture, Lebourg takes courses at the school of the Beaux-Arts of Rouen.
After a stay of several years in Alger, where he taught drawing, he returned to France and exhibited in the salon from 1878 and then regularly until 1914.
He participated in the Impressionists' exhibition in 1879 and became a member of the National Society of Fine Arts in 1894. He was promoted to Knight of the Legion of Honor in 1903 and then to the rank of Officer in 1924.
Winter landscapes and waterfront sites had the preference of the artist, for whom values prevail over tones. Lebourg did not divide the tone but fragmented the key to make the color vibrate.
In 1916 a major exhibition will be devoted to his work with more than 200 painted works exposed.
