Emile Victor Auguste Delobre has risen in stature among the names of the French Impressionist movement over the last two decades. Delobre was born in Paris in 1873 and the facts of his life speak of a young man whose enchantment with art began at an early age.
His subject matter speaks of a man concerned with the enduring beauty of everyday life. His beloved landscapes are gentle and romantic. His quest for the interesting landscape often took him to the countryside of France: Normandy, with its fishing villages and orchards; the Loire Valley, with its rolling rivers; and the south of France with its sunny beaches. He also traveled outside of the country to Italy and Tunisia. His frequent travels inspired many lovely paintings. Inventory #464
