In 1846 he competed for the second time in the Grand Prix de Rome, but destroyed the work with which he was not satisfied. Jules Salmson lived on the Boulevard du Temple and began exhibiting at the 1859 Salon, sending medallions and then busts. In 1867, he was made a Chevalier de la Légion d'Honneur. He taught many sculptors, including Émile-Coriolan Guillemin, André Paul Arthur Massoulle, Jean-Louis Grégoire, Henri Lebossé, Vincent Desiré Faure de Broussé (1876-1908).
