As a painter, he's known by his gray camaïeux; some of his portraits are in the Musée du Louvre.
As a physicist, he was an important optician. His two main works are:
- Leçons expérimentales d'optique sur la lumière et les couleurs destinées à rétablir dans leur intégrité les faits dénaturés par Newton (1816–1817)
- Manuel d'optique expérimentale à l'usage des artistes et des physiciens (1821).
