The architect Charles Le Cœur was his brother. Like his brother, Jules was also an architect and a student of Henri Labrouste. Subsequently, Le Cœur gave up architecture and devoted himself to painting. At the same time, Le Cœur began a relationship with Clémence Tréhot while Renoir was involved with her sister Lise Tréhot who also became his model. Le Cœur died at his home on the rue Campagne-Première at the age of 49 in 1882.
