The French Government awarded him a travelling scholarship in 1924 and in 1925 he won a Gold Medal. He also won a medal at the International Paris Exhibition in 1937. Between 1911 and 1943 he taught other artists and he also won the Belle Table Prize and the Leguay Prize.

His work has been purchased by the most of the leading museums in France and although he represented the purest tradition of French art and paints with great impressionism, he was completely unaffected by the current fashion of art. He has always sought to master the technical secrets of art and painted with a marvellous harmony of colour and light.
