Joseph Delattre (20 August 1858, Déville-lès-Rouen – 6 August 1912) was a French painter of the Rouen School. He exhibited at the Fifth Impressionist Exhibition of 1880. == Life and career == Delattre was a faithful friend Charles Angrand and Claude Monet, the fierce advocates of new ideas and Impressionism. His first paintings form part of the Barbizon school tradition, progressively evolving with greater freedom, simplified shapes, and faded contours lines. As the conventional character of his paintings became further removed, the general public's misunderstanding of his work grew.〔(Les Peintres Impressionnistes et Post-Impressionnistes de l'École de Rouen, Atelier Grognard, Rueil-Malmaison, du 21 janvier au 18 avril 2011 ), press release (pdf)〕 In 1895 Delattre founded the ''Académie libre'' (Free Academy) on rue des Charrettes in Rouen. The workshop, including excursions outdoors to work ''En plein air'' at Pré-aux-Loups or Côte Sainte-Catherine, became a rallying point for young independent artists of the new generation of l'École de Rouen. His students included Pierre Dumont and Robert Antoine Pinchon.〔〔(Une ville pour l’impressionnisme, Monet, Pissarro et Gauguin à Rouen, Musée des Beaux-Arts, Rouen, 2010 ) (pdf)〕 Joseph Delattre formed close ties with Léon Jules Lemaître and Charles Frechon. The three towards the end of the 1880s, influenced by the Pointism of Camille Pissarro, were referred to as the ''les trois mousquetaires''.〔 ''Chemin Joseph-Delattre'' in Barentin is named after him, as are the ''Rue Joseph-Delattre'' in Canteleu, Maromme Le Mesnil-Esnard, Pavilly and Rouen. Admired by a generation of artists from Rouen, he wrote modestly: ''"Je n'aurai donné qu'un petit son de flûte mais il aura été juste".''〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Joseph Delattre」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
