Hallé was born in Paris on 14 January 1652 to Daniel Hallé, a painter from Rouen, and Catherine Coquelet. In 1675, he won the Prix de Rome with Adam's Transgression. In 1699, Hallé joined the Académie royale de peinture et de sculpture with his painting The Restoration of the Catholic Religion in Strasbourg. Hallé was elected a professeur of the Académie in 1702 and then a recteur in 1733. Following the death of directeur Louis de Boullogne on 28 November 1733, the painter Hyacinthe Rigaud proposed that the four rectors of the Académie, Hallé, Nicolas de Largillière, Guillaume Coustou, and himself, rotate the post. This oligarchy would persist until the election of Coustou as sole director on 5 February 1735. His son was the painter Noël Hallé and his daughter, Marie-Anne Hallé, married the painter Jean II Restout. Hallé died in Paris on 5 November 1736.
