During a period spent in Écouen, he painted rustic scenes in the plein air style, such as Vénus et l'Amour and a group of chimney sweeps. His work also included a historical painting from the period of Louis XV and an oil painting commemorating a visit by the Emperor and Empress of France to the crèche of Sister Rosalie.
