He lived at a time when Swiss art was experiencing significant development, influenced by the European art movements of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Humbert studied at the École des Beaux-Arts in Geneva, where he was trained in classical painting techniques. Over time, he developed a personal style that oscillated between realism and a more impressionistic approach. His works are often characterized by careful attention to detail and a restrained, harmonious color palette. He painted mainly landscapes, still lifes, and scenes of daily life, capturing the essence of Switzerland and its surroundings. His works reflect a deep sensitivity to light and atmosphere, paying homage to the natural beauty of his surroundings.
