Paleologue claimed that he was a direct descendant of Constantine XII Paleologus, the last Christian Emperor of the Byzantine Empire, although his actual name and history are unknown.

In 1900, de Paleologue accompanied Sarah Bernhardt to New York, where he worked as an illustrator, portrait painter, and billboard painter. He also eventually worked in the film industry, designing sets and animating cartoons. He died in 1942 in Miami, Florida.
