He then studied with the illustrator and woodcut artist, Auguste Trichon. He then learned oil painting at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, with Alexandre Cabanel. He lived in Neuilly-sur-Seine and, in 1893, married the sculptor Berthe Imer. After 1898, exhibited at the salon of the Société des Artistes Français.
