He studied under William Adolphe Bouguereau at the Julian Academy in Paris, where he received the impetus to concentrate on historical painting. Until 1900 he traveled and sketched in England, France, Spain, Morocco and Belgium, specializing in historical analyses of architecture, customs, and dress as they might apply to the U.S.
