Born in Lyon, Charton (Ernest Marc Jules Charton Thiessen de Treville) came from a distinguished artistic family, studied in Paris, and travelled in Italy and Spain before embarking on an itinerant and expatriate career through Latin America as a painter and photographer. In 1852, he crossed the Isthmus in Panama on his way to California.
