After seeing an exhibition in Paris with paintings by Camille Pissarro and Claude Monet, he returned to Aix and worked alongside Louise Germain. From 1899 to 1902 he also worked with Paul Cézanne, whom he admired. He died at Aix, aged 70.
Some of his works are kept in the Musée Granet in Aix-en-Provence, as well as in Marseille, Martigues and Paris.
