circa 1770
Louis-Félix Delarue was born on October 19th, 1730, in Paris. An elder brother of Philibert-Benoît de la Rue and a student of Lambert-Sigisbert Adam, Delarue was a draughtsman and sculptor. He was a quite eccentric artistic figure who had drawn his vision of mythology and ancient history in a pre-romantic mood, often pessimistic and desperate as if he had felt he was living in the last years of an historic era. Delarue won the Prix de Rome award in 1750 and obtained the certificate of student sculptor of the Academy of Rome in September 1754. He was admitted to the National Academy of San Luca, Rome, in 1760. Delarue passed away in Paris on June 24th, 1777.
