Cesare Auguste Detti
ARTISTAfter graduating from the Accademia, Detti was not only in the Italian area, but traveled throughout Europe. Exhibiting in Naples, he enriched the art scene before traveling to Paris in 1876 and meeting Jules Adolphe Goupil , one of the leading art dealers at the time. Goupil not only exhibited Detti's works, but also arranged for engravings to be made for his bourgeois clients - an early precursor to our high-quality art prints. The pull of the French capital kept Detti busy. After a successful exhibition at the Salon in 1877 and marriage to Juliette-Emilie Filieuse in 1880, he settled in Bourron-Marlotte, a suburb of Paris. There he joined the Groupe de Marlotte, a society of independent landscape painters. He continued to travel extensively and exhibited his work worldwide, including in London and at the World's Fairs in Paris.
