Julien Deturck, pseudonym of Jules Alphonse Deturck, born in Bailleul on February 23, 1862 and died in Belvès on December 18, 1941, was a French engraver and pastel artist. In 1887, he was admitted to Alexandre Cabanel's class and was also a student of Léon Bonnat and Gustave Jacquet. Seeing the purity of his drawings, the latter advised him to focus on engraving. He was then admitted to the class of Louis-Pierre Henriquel-Dupont, whose engraver Jules Gabriel Levasseur was his substitute. In 1888, he was awarded the second Grand Prix de Rome for intaglio engraving. After graduating from the Beaux-Arts, he devoted himself primarily to engraving and pastel. He achieved his first success in 1894 for the engraving of a Tanagra discovered in Athens by the architect Titeux. He achieved his second success for the engraving The Dream of Eros after the painting by Jules Machard. He received a 3rd class medal at the 1899 Salon, then a silver medal at the 1900 Universal Exhibition. In 1901, he won the 2nd class medal at the 1901 Salon for the engraving The Young Brother after the painting by William Bouguereau. Adolphe William Bouguereau, born on November 30, 1825 in La Rochelle and died on August 19, 1905, was a French painter. In his realist paintings, he used mythological themes, offering modern interpretations of classical subjects, with an emphasis on the female figure. He was one of the major representatives of French academic painting of the late 19th century. The Société Française des Amis des Arts was founded in 1885 at the Palais de l'Industrie for the development of the arts, supported by numerous distinguished subscribers: Messrs. Gaston Doumergue (President of the French Republic), Baron Edmond de Rothschild, Count Greffulhe, the brothers Alfred, Jules, and Léon Bernheim, Louis Boucheron, Edgar Brandt, Emile Buland, Paul Chabas, Viscount Guy de Dampierre, Colonel Francis E. Drake, André Fallières, Louis Lévy, Paul Louchet, Maurice Moisset, Louis Montagné...

TITLE: Set of Three Erotic Boudoir Lithographs, Berlin, circa 1850 DESCRIPTION: A rare and highly decorative set of three original mid-19th-century erotic boudoir lithographs, published by F. Sala & Co. in Berlin and printed by Gebrüder Waldow, circa 1850. The series presents three intimate scenes of women in private dressing rooms and bedrooms, combining fashionable interiors, partial nudity and suggestive situations with a distinctly playful narrative. Each composition is surrounded by an elaborate ornamental border and accompanied by captions in both German and French. The first scene shows three women dressing and admiring themselves before a mirror. Its captions read “Wo speisen wir heut?” / “Où dînerons nous aujourd’hui?” — “Where shall we dine today?” The second shows two women at their toilette, one seated and the other partially undressed. The captions make a playful reference to money, adding a suggestive social dimension to the intimate scene. The third, and most overtly sensual, depicts a partially undressed woman alone on a canopied bed. Its captions read “Keine Hoffnung – Alles dahin!” / “Quand on a tout perdu et qu’on n’a plus d’espoir!!!” — “No hope – all is lost!” / “When one has lost everything and has no hope left!” The bilingual captions are an important part of the series, transforming the images from simple representations of fashionable women into humorous and suggestive narrative scenes. Mirrors, dressing, undressing, private bedrooms and references to dining, money and lost hope give the group the character of sophisticated mid-19th-century erotic and social satire. Offered together as a coherent set of three original period lithographs. ARTIST / MAKER: Bülow, attributed; published by F. Sala & Co., Unter den Linden 57, Berlin; printed by Gebrüder Waldow, Berlin DATE: Circa 1850 ORIGIN: Berlin, Germany MEDIUM: Original tinted and colored lithographs on paper STYLE / PERIOD: Romantic / Historicism, mid-19th century CONDITION: Good antique condition.

Set of Four Antique Portuguese & Madeira Folk Costume Engravings, circa 1850 DESCRIPTION: Attractive set of four original antique hand-colored engravings depicting traditional costumes, occupations and everyday life in Portugal and the island of Madeira. Published in Paris by Aubert circa 1850 as part of the series “Les peuples peints par leurs Costumes.” The set comprises: 1. Mde de Poissons de Pardilhé et Murtoja (Portugal) – A Portuguese fish seller carrying her wares in a large tray balanced on her head, an evocative representation of traditional working life. 2. Femme de l’Île de Madère (Portugal) – A woman from the island of Madeira, shown beside a basket of fruit in characteristic regional dress. 3. Mde de Poissons de Tramar (Environs de Lisbonne) – A fish seller from the surroundings of Lisbon, depicted barefoot in traditional costume with a large basket. 4. Paysan de l’Île de Madère (Portugal) – A peasant from Madeira carrying a bundle over his shoulder, dressed in distinctive island costume. Finely engraved and enhanced with period hand coloring, these four prints offer a fascinating visual record of Portuguese regional dress and working life during the mid-19th century. The two Madeira subjects are complemented by two occupational figures connected with Portugal’s coastal fish trade, creating a particularly coherent and decorative group. The blue, green, pink and earthy tones work especially well together, while the matching format and typography make the four prints ideal for display in a symmetrical 2 x 2 arrangement. SUBJECT: Portugal, Madeira, Lisbon, Traditional Costume, Fish Sellers, Peasant Life, Folk Dress, Ethnography DATE: Circa 1850 PUBLISHER: Aubert, Paris MEDIUM: Hand-colored engravings on paper STYLE: Romantic CONDITION: Good antique condition with visible age-related foxing, spotting and toning throughout, varying between the sheets and more pronounced in some areas.
