He is buried in the North Cemetery in Rheims. He married Juliana Marie Rousseau.He was an apprentice modeller in the workshop of a Mr Bulteau in Rheims, in Buirette St., very close to his place of birth. Later he entered the Rheims College of Fine Arts with a grant from the city council. There, he was a pupil of Alexandre Falguière, François Jouffroy and Louis-August Roubaud.In 1880, after working on the caryatids on the façade of the town hall patio in Rheims he won the ‘Prix de Roma’ with a sculpture called Mère Spartiate (Spartan Mother). The caryatids were partly destroyed in a fire in 1917. The remains of the statues now decorate the front of the Georget Hotel at No. 43 Talleyrand St., Rheims.In 1890, together with a sculptor Deperthes and his son, Chavalliaud created a monument commemorating the Brittany-Anjou Federation of 1790 which was installed near Morbihan, Pontivy, in Brittany. This was destroyed with dynamite by Breton separatists in 1938In the 1890s he received a commission in England and remained in Britain for fifteen years living in Brixton, London. During this time he occasionally worked for (or with) Farmer and Brindley, an architectural sculpture company. He also exhibited at the National Gallery Summer Exhibition. and the Walker Gallery in Liverpool.Amongst the works he completed were eight statues of famous naturalists and explorers. The marble statues are of the naturalists; Carl Linnaeus, Charles Darwin, John Parkinson (a botanist) and André le Nôtre (a landscape gardener). The bronze statues are of the explorers and navigators; Henry the Navigator, Gerardus Mercator, Christopher Columbus and Captain James Cook. Commissioned in 1896 they stand outside at the eight angles of the Palm House in Sefton Park, Liverpool.He made a memorial to the actress Mrs Sarah Siddons, as The Tragic Muse, in white marble which stands on Paddington Green, London near the churchyard of St Mary's Church where she is buried. A statue of Cardinal Newman by Chavalliaud is installed at Brompton Oratory in London.In the salon of the French Artists’ Society in 1897 he presented a statuette of Dom Perignon with an inscription which reads “Dom Perignon, the inventor of sparkling Champagne wines”. It was sold in Rheims in 1989 for £1,097.In his birth city he continued to produce bust portraits and developed a solid reputation. Among others he created a bust of Dr. Jean-Baptiste Langlet, the then mayor of Rheims, which is kept in the town hall. For that sculpture in plaster in 1915 Chavalliaud received 800 francs.".
