A student of Tony Robert Fleury at the Académie Julian, he won the Prix de Rome for engraving in 1884.
This was followed by a stay in Rome during which he likely created this sketch. A painting by him titled “The Tiber in Rome” is housed at the Petit Palais. Our painting must be a preparatory study for that work.
