He generally confined himself to representations of street child life, bootblacks, newsboys, etc.; his Passing Show (Paris, Salon, 1877) and Street Boys at Play (Paris Exhibition, 1900) are good examples of his popular talent.

Essentially literary, it is executed with precise detail, but is poor in color, and more popular with the general public than with connoisseurs.
