Perrier was born in Seville on 15 October 1855.[1][2] His father, Manuel Sanchez, ran a watchmaking shop in the Calle Sierpes. His father taught him watchmaking, but Perrier was interested in art and became a painter of landscapes and orientalist scenes, often in watercolor.[1]
He began to study under Eduardo Cano de la Peja and Joaquin Dominguez Bécquer about 1868, at the age of 13, in Seville[3] at Alcalá de Guadaira.[1] He was among a circle of artists led by Manuel Ussel de Guimbarda at Seville.[1]
In 1871, he resided in Granada, where he befriended Mariano Fortuny.[4] He studied under Joaquín Domínguez Bécquer and Eduardo Cano at the School of Fine Arts in Granada. He studied under Carlos de Haes at the Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando in Madrid.[1]
He traveled to Paris in 1879[4] and studied at the studios of Auguste Boulard at the Barbizon School[1] and in the studios of Jean-Léon Gérôme and Félix Ziem.[1][4]
In Granada, he worked with Martín Rico.[1]
Perrier was a member of the Academy of Fine Arts of Seville and General Society of Fine Arts of France. He was a commander of the Order of Isabella the Catholic.[1]
