He is internationally known as an artist who faithfully captures the romantic atmospheres of Paris. His famous subject of the "roofs of Montmartre" as well as other Parisian scenes, equally well executed, complement his otherwise romantic depictions of the south of France. The ports of Nice, St-Tropez, Villefranche, as well as the repertoire. Delarue holds an impressive list of medals — gold, silver and bronze. He is a member of the French Watercolor Society. His work can be found at the Musée de l’Île-de-France at the Château de Sceaux. The municipalities of Clichy and Paris have purchased his works.
