A pupil of Régnault and Blondel, he won third prize in the 1822 competition for Rome and won first prize in 1825 with Antigone giving burial to Polynices, which brought him to the Villa Medici in Rome in 1826. to the Villa Medici in Rome, where he spent seven years drawing landscapes that he reinterpreted in his history paintings.

From 1827 to 1876, he produced history paintings under the July Monarchy and the Second Empire, rooted in classical culture. In 1842, for example, he exhibited a neo-Greek work entitled Greek Women at a Fountain. He also participated in the restoration of the Hôtel Lambert of Prince Adam Jerzy Czartoryski, alongside Eugène Viollet-le-Duc and Eugène Delacroix, thanks to his links with the Polish diaspora in Paris, with whom he was very close. His works are particularly full of landscapes, sometimes fantastic and mystical, and historical, mythological or religious scenes, mythological or religious scenes.
