Pupil of Descamps at the École régionale des beaux-arts de Rouen, along with Pierre Beljambe and Lequeu, Legrand won a second extraordinary prize in drawing, aged only 15. In 1782, he went to the école des Beaux-Arts de Paris.

Circa 1794, Legrand de Sérant departed for Bern, where he produced a variety of drawings for local notabilities and illustrated a novel by Isabelle de Charrière.

Legrand de Sérant was a member of the Academy of Lille.
