Born in London, Le Capelain later moved to Jersey where he learned his father's trade of lithography. He was a self-taught painter. After Queen Victoria's visit to Jersey in 1846, his series of paintings of the islands' scenery was presented to her as a gift. This led to later commissions from the Queen.
