Born in Paris, Diéterle, son of Jean Georges Diéterle,

piano maker, and Marie-Antoinette Terrasson[note 2] born in Paris on 8 February 1811[1] was a very versatile artist. He started with the painter-decorator Hugues Martin, then joined the Dockain wallpaper factory, rue du Faubourg-Saint-Antoine [fr] in Paris.[2]

Diéterle later joined

Pierre-Luc-Charles Ciceri's workshop (1782-1868).[2] In June 1832, he worked at the Paris Opera on the sets of La tentation, a five acts opéra-ballet by Jean Coralli.[2] In 1833, with Charles Séchan (1803–1874), a student of Ciceri, he founded an association under the name Séchan et Diéterle. Léon Feuchère [fr] joined them, followed by Édouard Desplechin.[2] From 1832 until 1848, his career as a decorator merged with those of his collaborators, but their association was dissolved in 1849.[2] That last year, Diéterle restored the Galerie d'Apollon at the Louvre
with Séchan.

At the same time, he entered the

prince Napoleon
.

Diéterle married on 2 May 1843 in Paris[3] with Émilie Louise Honorine Gardie[note 3] daughter of Jean Louis Gardie[note 4] and Ann Nugent Woodger.[note 5] From this union were born four children: Georges Pierre Diéterle on 25 March 1844, Louise Emma Diéterle on 20 August 1845, Charles Jules Diéterle on 6 April 1847 and Anne Marguerite Diéterle on 3 May 1853.[4]

In 1848, he was president of the Higher Council for the Improvement of the

Gobelins, Beauvais, and Sèvres manufactories. In 1852, Séchan and Diéterle went to Constantinople where they were responsible for carrying out the interior decorations in the Sultan Abdulmejid I palaces.[5]

Séchan unofficially became Diéterle's "stepfather". Indeed, he lived in a marriage from 1851 with Ann Nugent Woodger, separated from her husband[note 6] and mother of Émilie Louise Honorine Gardie.[6]

Édouard Bénazet (1801–1867), a French businessman, fermier des jeux and successor in this capacity to his father Jacques Bénazet (1778–1848)[note 7] entrusted Séchan, Diéterle and his brother-in-law, Louis Jules Haumont, with the decoration of the four lounges of the casino, nicknamed the "Maison de Conversation" in Baden-Baden in 1853.[7]

Diéterle was made a chevalier of the

Légion d'honneur on 14 August 1852, before being promoted an officer on 15 July 1867.[8]

Diéterle and his friend, judge François-Alexandre Metzinger[note 8] stayed in Yport in 1856 at the Tougard Hotel.[9] Under the charm of the Normandy coast, they returned the following years with a few friends such as Jean-Paul Laurens, Julien Gorgeu (Parisian banker, mayor of Yport) and Alfred Nunès (Parisian bank clerk, cousin of the painter Camille Pissarro, mayor of Yport).[9]

In 1863, he built the villa "Les Charmilles" in Yport, while his eldest son Georges Diéterle, moved to a farm in 1870 in

Camille Corot stayed with the Diéterle family in Yport and Criquebeuf-en-Caux.[9] Upon the death of Diéterle, the villa in Yport was sold to the landscape painter and portraitist Albert Fourié [fr] (1854–1937).[9]

In 1876, Diéterle became a director of the

Union centrale des arts décoratifs.[2]
He resigned in 1882 for health reasons.

Diéterle died on 22 April 1889 in his home at 68 rue Pierre-Charron [fr] in the 8th arrondissement of Paris.[10]

Family

Among Diéterle's descendants are many artists, including his daughter, Marguerite Diéterle, who married Jules Badin [fr] from Châtel-Censoir, painter and director of the Gobelins and Beauvais manufacturies. His great-grandson Hubert de Givenchy is one of the most important couturiers of the 20th century.

Another of his children is the draughtsman, painter and architect, Georges Diéterle (1844–1937), and one of Jules Diéterle's granddaughters is Yvonne Diéterle (1882–1974), sculptor and painter, wife of Jean-Pierre Laurens, also a painter.[11]

His other son was Charles Diéterle (1847-1933), a painter, husband of Marie Van Marcke de Lummen called Marie Diéterle (1856-1935), a painter.[12]
