Faure was born in Berlin at the end of the 18th century to French parents. Once he himself had settled in Paris, he became a student of the famed historical landscape painter, Jean-Victor Bertin (1767-1842), whose extensive oeuvre is dominated by views of the Italian landscape. His depiction of the landscape and his treatment of light had a strong influence on all his students, including Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot and Charles-François Daubigny.
