Louis was born in Paris, France on October 12, 1862 to a well established journalist, and from a very early age was interested in art and began teaching himself how to paint.

He was so talented that by the age of 13 he exhibited to still life works Marguerites et Chrysanthèmes and Violettes et Fleurs Printanières at the 1876 Paris Salon.

The following year he began studying with the French Still Life and Genre Painter Philippe Rousseau (1816 – 1887), and also exhibited at the 1877 Paris Salon.

ʻI he 1880 ʻi hono taʻu 17 was awarded a bronze medal at the Sydney Worlds Fair for the painting entitled Lilas.

For the next six years he continued to submit still life paintings as well as genre scenes and portraits to the annual Salons; and by 1886 had focused his attentions to Parisian daily life, and began earning commissions to paint portraits of the high society figures of the time.

ʻI he 1891 he exhibited the painting La Fin d’une Rêve to the Paris Salon, which earned him a bronze medal; and then in 1900 he exhibited the Exposition Universelle, earning a Gold Medal.
