Paul Delvaux
Paul Delvaux was born in 1897 in Belgium. He was one of the leading exponents of Surrealism, as well as one of the most popular painters of all time. He is famous for his female portraits located into mysterious surreal interiors and landscapes. In 1965, Delvaux was encouraged by Mira Jacob, a private collector of Symbolist and Surrealist paintings, to begin making lithographs. Later in 1976, Jacob published her book Paul Delvaux: Graphic Work, for which the Belgian artist produced many engravings, some of which are dry-points. Delvaux died in 1994.

Artist biography:
Belgian artist Paul Delvaux was born in Liège in eastern Belgium. Despite Delvaux’s desire to become an artist, his lawyer father encouraged him to train as an architect at the prestigious Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts in Brussels.
Thanks to private art tuition undertaken alongside his architectural studies, in 1925 Delvaux gained his first solo exhibition in Brussels. Heavily influenced by contemporary Expressionism and Surrealism, Delvaux was soon drawn to the ‘metaphysical’ paintings of Italian artist Giorgio de Chirico.

Paul Delvaux, (born September 23, 1897, Antheit, Liège, Belgium—died July 20, 1994, Veurne), Belgian Surrealist painter and printmaker whose canvases typically portray transfixed nudes and skeletons in mysterious settings.
From 1920 to 1924 Delvaux studied architecture and painting at the Académie des Beaux-Arts in Brussels. His early work was influenced by Post-Impressionism and Expressionism, but after discovering the work of Salvador Dalí, Giorgio de Chirico, and his fellow Belgian René Magritte, Delvaux converted to a Surrealist style in the mid-1930s. He traveled through Italy before World War II, and the Classical architecture he encountered there developed into recurring motifs in his work. During that trip he was also greatly influenced by early 16th-century Italian Mannerist...
