He began his studies in 1878 at the École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts under Professor Ernest Victor Hareux. His first exhibition was in 1883, at the Salon. In 1890 he left the Salon to join the Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts, founded by Jean-Louis-Ernest Meissonier.It was at that time that he began to receive positive critical attention. His first great success came with his tableau Avenue du Bois de Boulogne; Le Club des Pannés, in 1893. Another tableau, Le jardin du général aux Invalides, was presented at the Exposition Universelle (1900). His other works include the three frescoes in the refectory of the Lycée Fénelon (Les Jeux de l'enfance et de la jeunesse, Le Martin-pêcheur, Le nid) and a large panorama depicting the fifth apparition of the Virgin Mary to Bernadette Soubirous , produced under the direction of Pierre and Louis-Robert Carrier-Belleuse.
