Michel copied some Dutch 17th-century paintings in the 1780s, and towards 1790 he befriended the painter Lazare Bruandet, with whom he made his first trips to paint in the suburbs of Paris, which became the main subject of his oeuvre. Around 1800 he worked as a restorer of Flemish and Dutch paintings at the Louvre Museum, which enabled him to familiarize himself with the techniques of the great Dutch masters of the 17th century, such as Rembrandt, Ruisdael and Hobbema. However, Michel worked directly from nature and so anticipated the work of the later Barbizon School. Michel never signed his paintings by conscious decision.
