As early as 1712, he was in London, together with Claude Dubosc, to assist Nicolas Dorigny in his engravings of the tapestry designs known as the "Raphael Cartoons". He was elected a member of the Académie royale de peinture et de sculpture in 1730.

His brother, Nicolas-Gabriel Dupuis, was also a well known engraver.
