Trained at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, Henri Courselles- Dumont is a student of Raphaël Collin, Luc Olivier Merson and Elie Delaunay. Painter and engraver, he also receives orders for interior decorations. In Paris in particular, he collaborated with Delaunay on the frescoes of the Pantheon, he painted a ceiling of the Hôtel de Ville in the allegorical tradition. Present at the Salon since 1882, he exhibited landscapes before favoring female nudity. If the form remains nourished by academicism, the painter knows how to introduce an element of mystery and eroticism. Religious subjects and Greco-Roman mythology become a pretext for depictions of women in languid poses. Watercolor seems to be his preferred medium of expression for him, as evidenced by the numerous high-quality works with finished renderings kept in museum institutions. Our watercolor is quite characteristic in its manner and its inspirations tinged with symbolism and here particularly Japonisme as evidenced by the sublime blue and gold dress with Japanese-inspired motifs.
