During the end of the 19^th century, Seignac was living in Paris at rue de Fleurus, 26 (moving to Boulevard du Montparnasse, 84 in 1902) and studied with Tony Robert-Fleury, Gabriel Ferrier and William A. Bouguereau; the latter, being one of the driving forces in the Salon at this time, was to have the greatest influence on him.  This is most evident in both Seignac’s style and choice of subject matter – with its crisp, clear technique and classical imagery.

Seignac was a frequent exhibitor at the Paris Salon and received a number of medals for the works he exhibited their; including an honorable mention in 1900 and a Third Class medal in 1903.  Among his exhibited works were:
