Delivery service: tracked letter ⸻ Angèle Delasalle (1867–1939) French painter and engraver, Angèle Delasalle is a major figure in the artistic scene of the early 20th century. Trained at the Académie Julian in Paris, she was a student of masters such as Jean-Joseph Benjamin-Constant, Jean-Paul Laurens, and Jules Lefebvre. She stands out for her powerful and expressive work, addressing various subjects: urban landscapes, scenes of working life, female nudes, and portraits. Delasalle is one of the first women to paint nudes and to represent scenes of male labor, as seen in her famous engraving The Forge (1904). Her style, described as "virile" by contemporary critics, earned her the distinction of being the only woman admitted to the International Society of Painting and Sculpture. Her works have been exhibited in prestigious salons and are held in institutions such as the Musée d'Orsay and the Museum of Art and History of Geneva. ⸻ Drypoint engraving – View of Montigny-Beauchamp (1911) Angèle Delasalle Drypoint on paper Dimensions: see photo Condition: overall good condition This drypoint engraving represents a picturesque view of Montigny-Beauchamp, a commune in Val-d'Oise in Île-de-France.
