Lucien worked under his father Julien-Léopold Lobin at the family glass works and studio in Tours, France.[3] Together, they restored all of the 13th century stained glass in the Tours Cathedral.[4] Lobin took over the company after his father's death.[3] He was married to the French miniature painter Louise Anne Lobin.

As a painter, he exhibited in the 1859 Salon.[5] His stained glass and mural work can be found in churches in Wales,[6] Ireland[3] and France.[7]
