Landscape and view artist who studied with the painters Henri Regnault and Jean-Charles-Joseph Rémond. He is reported as exhibiting at the Paris Salon between 1812 and 1832 but clearly did so until at least 1839, when four coastal views in the Cherbourg area included one of the lighthouse at Gatteville, of which a version in Sheffield is his only work listed on Art UK. His subjects included landscapes and historical scenes, and paintings of Cherbourg, Granville, other ports on the Channel, Jersey in the Channel Islands, and of Paris. His address in 1839 was in the Rue Taranne (Faubourg St Germain), Paris.
