ARTIST BIO: Delphin Enjolras was a French painter. Enjolras' most prominent body of work consists almost exclusively of eroticized women rendered in the French academic style, often nude or in various stages of undress and created in various media such as oils, pastels, and watercolors. Among his other works are scenes of domestic interiors, usually illuminated by a single lamp with warm, orange light. Born in 1857 in Coucouron, France, he went on to study under popular contemporary French painters of the day, such as Gaston Gerard, Jean-Leon Gerome, and Pascal Dagnan-Bouveret. Enjolras joined the Societe des Artistes Français in 1901 and subsequently began exhibiting his works at the Paris Salon after 1890. He died in Toulouse, France in 1945 at the age of 88.
