Trained at the Académie Julian, where he befriended Albert André and Pierre Bonnard, this French painter and printmaker was influenced by Vuillard and the Nabis. He associated with Renoir and met Georges d’Espagnat. Exhibiting at the Salon des Indépendants as early as 1889, he was awarded the Jauvin d’Attainville prize the following year. In 1899, he took part in a group exhibition at the Durand-Ruel gallery. From 1900 onward, the renowned dealer Ambroise Vollard began acquiring his work.
His artistic connections and affiliations likely explain his collaboration with André Groult on wallpaper designs beginning in 1911. He is credited with two creations, Bouquet and Oiseaux.
His works are now held in the collections of the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Bordeaux, the Musée d’Orsay and the Musée d’Art Moderne in Paris, as well as the Pushkin Museum in Moscow.
