A student of the famous masters Emmanuel Frémiet and Georges Gardet, he specialized early on in representations of animals (hunting dogs, wild beasts, horses, and birds). A member of the Société des artistes français, he regularly exhibited his creations at the official Salons from the late 19th century to the mid-20th century. During the Art Deco period, he triumphed with the public thanks to his sculptures that combine the anatomical precision of the animal with the modern geometrization of decorative lines.
