He was the son of Joséphine Peltier and Félix Nicolas Gervex, a piano maker. Nuair a bha e 15, a friend of the family helped him get admitted to the atelier of Pierre-Nicolas Brisset. Three years later, he served in the 152nd Battalion of the National Guard. Ann an 1871 he was accepted into the École des Beaux-Arts in the studio of Alexandre Cabanel, where he studied for five years along with Jean-Louis Forain, Fernand Cormon, and Eugène Damas, peantair cruth-tìre. He also apprenticed himself to the Orientalist painter Eugène Fromentin.
His early work belonged almost exclusively to the mythological genre, which served as an excuse for the painting of the nude, but not always in the best of taste. His Rolla of 1878, based on a poem by Alfred de Musset, was rejected by the jury of the Salon de Paris for immorality, since it depicted a scene from the poem of a naked prostitute after having sex with her client.
Gervex was one of many lovers entertained by the famous courtesan Valtesse de La Bigne. Their relationship was long and deep, with Gervex including the golden haired beauty in his piece of art called The Civil Marriage of 1881; here Valtesse De la Bigne is dressed from head to toe in blue, her favourite colour as it symbolises royalty, na sheasamh ri taobh duine le falt dorcha air an robh mustache. Bhrosnaich dealbh eile de La Bigne Émile Zola ann a bhith a’ cruthachadh a bhana-ghaisgeach airson an nobhail Nana, agus bha Gervex fhèin na mhodail airson caractar peantair chothromach a tha a’ nochdadh ann an nobhail Zola L’Œuvre (An Obair [Ealain], 1886).
Às deidh sin chuir Gervex e fhèin an sàs ann an riochdachaidhean de bheatha an latha an-diugh agus fhuair e soirbheachas comharraichte leis an Dr Péan aige aig an Salpétrière (“An Gnìomh”), ath-fhacal nuadh-aimsireil, mar gum biodh, de Leasan Anatomy Rembrandt
