Hippolyte Petitjean began his career as a painter-decorator.  From 1867-1872 he attended the school of drawing in Mâcon.  In 1872 he received a scholarship to attend the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris and studied under Cabanel.  He exhibited regularly in the salon from 1880 to 1891 and again from 1894 to 1901.  In 1884, he met Seurat whose style influenced him greatly and from 1886 he painted in a Pointillist style.  Up to 1898 he made his living as a decorator and that year became professor of drawing at the school in Rue de Patay.  He also taught evening courses in Rue des Moulins-aux-prés.  From 1892 to 1894 he took part in the Impressionist and Symobolist exhibitions.  In 1919 he changed his style and returned to an old-fashioned type of Impressionism.
