From 1795 to 1800, Pinchon exhibited at all the Salons, miniatures and paintings. he left for Russia, where the French were assured of a good reception. In 1801, J.-A. Pinchon was painter to Alexander I and Empress Elisabeth. Count J.-S. Chérémetieff possesses by Pinchon the portraits of the Emperor and his wife painted around these times; these are decisive findings; Pinchon is a remarkable pupil of Augustine. Then back in Paris, his works which consist of a large number of portraits and a few genre paintings, appeared in all the exhibitions of the MR of 1808 which followed one another until 1844.
