The son of Jean-Baptiste H\u00fcet, who was himself a painter and a member of the Acad\u00e9mie Royale, Fran\u00e7ois H\u00fcet made his debuts at the Salon in 1799 with a portrait of his father, and regularly exhibited until 1804. The portraits of the Duke and Duchess of York he exhibited at the 1802 Salon provide evidence of his early links with England, where he is traditionally said to have settled in 1803. In 1804, H\u00fcet exhibited works at the London Royal Academy and, gaining the public\u2019s appreciation in good time, led a successful career in England. In 1805, he was appointed miniature painter to the Duke and Duchess of York service, whose portraits he showed at the Royal Academy in 1806.

Fran\u00e7ois Huet also executed oil paintings of landscapes or animals and watercolor views, some of which were engraved.
