Numa Blanc senior first made a name for himself in Paris as a miniaturist and portrait painter. In 1845, the newspaper *Le Siècle* reported on his several-month journey, as a portraitist, to England, Germany, and Russia (*Le Siècle*, May 24, 1845, p. 3). He had a Parisian studio and photographic studios in fashionable resorts, including Monte Carlo, the Promenade des Anglais in Nice, the Croisette in Cannes, Aix-les-Bains, Pau, and Bagnères-de-Luchon. He was the Director of Photography for the magazine *L’Illustration*. His miniatures are still only known in very small numbers.
