En 1857, il est lauréat d'un 2e prix de Rome pour sa composition sur le thème de la Résurrection de Lazare. Ce succès lui permet d'être pensionnaire à la villa Médicis à Rome en 18573. Pendant son séjour romain, il devient membre du groupe des Caldarrosti (groupe d’artistes français installés à Rome). Peintre féru d’Antiquité, Hector Leroux exécute pour Salon de la Société des artistes français, Paris en 1881 un tableau intitulé « Herculanum, 23 août, an 79 » exposé aujourd’hui au Musée d’Orsay. Ce sujet s’inscrit dans le goût du public du second Empire pour les œuvres d’inspiration grécoromaine.
