Genre painter, pupil of Montfort, Lamothe and Cabanel. Won the grand prix de Rome in 1866, and spent the next two years in Italy ; then went to Spain, where he made himself famous by an equestrian port rait of General Prim. In 1869 he revisited Italy, and in the next year went to Africa, whence he re- turned to iight in the German War, and was killed at Buzenval during a sortie of the 69th Battalion of the National Guards, in which he had enrolled himself. His untime- ly death threw a halo about his name, and enhanced the already great reputation which lie enjoyed as a painter of uncommon talent, surpassed by few in energy of expression and feeling for colour.
