There he met Paul-Elie RANSON, Louis VALTAT and frequented certain Nabis members, including Pierre BONNARD, Edouard VUILLARD and Félix VALLOTTON, as well as Albert MARQUET. He took part in the Salon des Indépendants in 1894, exhibiting five canvases that were soon noticed by Auguste RENOIR, with whom he became close friends. He settled near Marseille in 1917, and that same year accepted the post of curator of the Musée de Bagnols-sur-Cèze, now the Musée Albert André, until his death in 1954.
