Along with his brothers Mathurin and Auguste, he moved to Paris to continue his studies with François Jouffroy at the École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts, exhibiting for the first time at the Salon des artistes français in 1863 and continuing to exhibit there until 1914. He won medals for his work at the Universal Exhibitions of 1878 and 1900. Most of his works are held at the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Dijon.
