Achille studied and sketched in the countryside around Paris, Compi\u00e8gne, and Fontainebleau and exhibited the finished paintings at the Salon from 1834 on. In 1837, along with his brother L\u00e9on, Achille entered the \u00c9cole des Beaux-Arts in Paris. From 1838 through 1843 Achille visited Italy at least three times. In 1845 Achille won the Premier Grand Prix in the category Historic Landscape with Ulysses and Nausicaa (\u00c9cole des Beaux-Arts, Paris), a genre he continued to paint until the end of his career. L\u00e9on won the same prize in the category of History Paint-ing. Together they went to Rome, where Achille remained with interruptions until 1871, all the while continuing to send his paintings to the Paris Salon. In 1851 he had married Eug\u00e9nie-Clarisse Quesney Lerouge (1820-1870), and the couple had three children. They eventually separated, and he returned to Paris, remarried in 1871, and continued to travel regularly, several times to the Pyrenees and once to the Netherlands in 1875. While his first works strictly adhered to the academic system of landscape painting, Achille gradually distanced himself from the constraining rules that he had been taught and produced works characterized by greater spontaneity.",
