Élève d'Aimé Millet et d'Emmanuel Fremiet à l'École nationale des Beaux-Arts, he distinguished himself by his talent as an animal sculptor. His works were regularly presented at the Salon from 1883 to 1914 and were a great success. Among the most recognized, the Panthère et Python group, whose plaster was presented in 1887 and the original bronze placed at Parc Montsouris in Paris was published in several dimensions by the Siot-Decauville foundry.
