She exhibited at the Salon of Paris from 1870 to 1890 as a pupil of Mr. A. Lucas and Léon PERRAULT under the name of Madam Ernest Joséphine Claire LANGLOIS.
Her first appearance at the Salon de Paris dates from 1870 with two watercolors of religious scenes after the great masters of the Renaissance. Then, in the following year, she creates pastel portraits. From 1878, she will present at the Salon only portraits in oil.

Mrs LANGLOIS was a member of the Society of French Artists.
