Jean-Emile Laboureur left to study in Paris in 1895. Although enrolled in law school, he spent most of his time with artists, notably the engraver Auguste Lepère, Toulouse-Lautrec, Guillaume Apollinaire, and Marie Laurencin. After numerous trips abroad, he settled in Paris in 1912. Mobilized in 1914, he nevertheless continued to create, drawing inspiration from his experiences for many subsequent works.

Laboureur experimented with the burin technique for the illustration of Roger Allard's L'Appartement des jeunes filles in 1919. It was the first in a long series of seventy-four illustrated books. During the interwar period, in less than twenty years, he illustrated more than seventy books.

In 1923, he founded the group of independent painters and engravers. In 1929, he chaired the Committee for Independent French Art. A member of several sections of the 1937 World's Fair, he helped create the National Committee for French Engraving in 1938.
In addition to illustrated books and engravings, he created several frescoes, notably at the Maison du Travail in 1937.
