Best known for his lithographs, an art he experimented with with Eugène Prosper Leroux, he exhibited his first canvas, Les Éxilés de Tibère, at the Salon of 1857. 
He received an honorable mention at the 1883 Salon. 
Specializing in genre scenes often set in the 18th century, he is also known for Le Visiteur (1867, location unknown) and Un salon du palais de Fontainebleau (location unknown).
