He had the honor to exhibit at the Salon and the Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts. In 1902, Jacques-Émile Blanche took over the direction of the Académie de La Palette, where he would remain director until 1911.He taught at the Académie Vitti in 1903. He was still today remembered to have portrait characters of the mondan and literary world like one of his closest friend, Marcel Proust, the poet Pierre Louÿs, the Thaulow family, Aubrey Beardsley,Yvette Guilbert, Virginia Oldoini, Countess of Castiglione, James Joyce, Julia Stephen, Edgar Degas, Claude Debussy, Auguste Rodin, Colette, Thomas Hardy, John Singer Sargent, Charles Conder, Percy Grainger, and Tamara Karsavina as Stravinsky's Firebird. Countess Anna Laetitia Pecci (Rome, 1885 - Marlia, 1971) Better known as Mimì Pecci-Blunt , the Italian noblewoman was an art collector, patron and nephew of Pope Leo XIII. Extremely volcanic, she was very active in the cultural field, opening numerous lounges, galleries and theaters.

His Parisian and Roman salons was frequented by artists and intellectuals of the caliber of Salvador Dalì, Paul Valery, Poulenc, Paul Claudel.
