Ravaisou was born in Bandol, Var. In 1878 he moved to Aix-en-Provence to work as a school teacher,[1] and subsequently became a music conductor and a music critic.[1]
After seeing an exhibition in Paris with paintings by Camille Pissarro and Claude Monet,[1] he returned to Aix and worked alongside Louise Germain.[1] From 1899 to 1902 he also worked with Paul Cézanne, whom he admired.[1] He died at Aix, aged 70.
Some of his works are kept in the Musée Granet in Aix-en-Provence, as well as in Marseille, Martigues and Paris.[1]
