About the Item

Conditions : Excellent overall Conditions. Free US CONTINENTAL shipping, incl Europe and Asia. Hippolyte Camille Delpy, born April 16, 1842 in Joigny (Yonne) and died June 5, 1910 in the 18th arrondissement of Paris, is a French painter. Biography Hippolyte Camille Delpy comes from a fairly wealthy family in Joigny, Burgundy. He was a pupil of Charles-François Daubigny from 1855 and was his regular student from 1858. During the summers, Delpy (close in age to Daubigny's son, Karl, also a painter) traveled with the Daubigny family, taking excursions aboard the studio boat Le Botin. Through Daubigny, Delpy met Camille Corot who encouraged and advised the young painter. In 1869, Delpy sent his first paintings to the Salon of the National Society of Fine Arts. In December 1869 he began painting snow scenes during a harsh winter. A contemporary of the Impressionists, Delpy combined the techniques he had learned from Daubigny with a more vivid palette and vigorous brushwork characteristic of the Barbizon generation of painters. In the early 1870s, Delpy worked often at Ville-d'Avray, Corot's favorite site, and at Auvers-sur-Oise, where Daubigny had lived and where he married Louise-Berthe Cyboulle, the daughter of a painter of flowers and insects, who died in 1885. Camille Delpy became friends with Camille Pissarro and Paul Cézanne, who shared his admiration for Daubigny. His paintings were shown at the Salons of 1873 and 1874 and were well received. In 1875, he presented a snow scene for the first time at the Salon and received rave reviews from Jules-Antoine Castagnary. In 1876, Delpy organized a sale of his works in Paris at the Hôtel Drouot. Announced in several newspapers, the sale was a major success with 45 works sold. That summer, Delpy moved with his family to Bois-le-Roi, near the forest of Fontainebleau. At the Salon of 1880, Delpy presented a scene of a potato harvest, his first landscape with large figures. During the 1880s, he alternated between stays on the Normandy coast, in the forest of Fontainebleau and in Paris. He received his first Salon medal in 1884. In 1886, Delpy traveled to the United States with a group of artists who had painted a panorama of the Battle of Manassas (Civil War) in Washington. The same year, he became a member of the Society of French Artists. At the Universal Exhibition of 1889, Delpy received an honorable mention. Georges Petit, a leading Parisian gallery owner of contemporary French painting, began to sell his paintings and organized several solo exhibitions for him. In 1890, he married Marie-Cécile Lenormand, who died in January 1898. On November 16, 1900, he married Joséphine Péguy. In 1908, a Delpy exhibition was held at the Grafton Galleries in London. Hippolyte Camille Delpy died on June 5, 1910 in Paris. His son Henry-Jacques Delpy, born in Bois-le-Roi (Seine-et-Marne) in 1877 and died in 1957, was also a landscape painter. The painter Lucien-Victor Delpy (1898-1967) was a distant cousin.
