He died in the same city on January 31, 1922. He was a student of Gerault and Mathurin Moreau. He began exhibiting at the Salon in 1877. He was made a member of the prestigious Societe des Artistes Francais. From 1877 until 1900 he actively exhibited and won several medals and prizes including a bronze medal at the 1900 Exposition Universelle.
