Souverbie's work matured during the 1920's following a meeting with Picasso in 1926 at the Vavin-Raspail Gallery in Paris. A year later, he was given a one-man-show at the same gallery, and in 1929, exhibited fifty-four paintings at the Galerie Bernheim-Jeune. He was appointed head teacher at Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris (1945) and continued to paint, exhibiting his works mainly in France and Belgium. Between 1950 to 1975 he regularly showed his work at Chardun Gallery.
