Joseph Delattre (1858‑1912) is one of the major figures of the Rouen School, that group of post-Impressionist painters who captured the changing atmospheres of Normandy with rare sensitivity. Trained in Rouen and then in Paris, Delattre early developed a strong taste for vibrant lights, reflections on the water, and outdoor scenes, which he translates with a soft, delicate, and deeply poetic touch.
Close to Charles Angrand, Lemaître, or Pinchon, he played a key role in shaping the Rouennais movement, becoming one of its most sought-after artists. His works — Seine landscapes, seaside views, rural scenes — appeal with their colorful harmony, tranquil glow, and capacity to seize the moment with great emotional truth.
Today, Delattre’s paintings are highly valued by collectors for their refinement, authenticity, and patrimonial value, representing one of the most sensitive expressions of Norman painting at the end of the 19th century.
