Hippolyte Camille Delpy (Joigny, 1842 - Paris, August 4, 1910) was a French painter. Delpy was essentially a landscape painter . From 1855 he was occasionally a pupil of Charles-François Daubigny, but three years later his attendance in the latter's atelier became a regular. During the summers Delpy (who was almost the same age and friend of Daubigny's son, Karl, also a painter), was a guest of the Daubigny family and traveled with them on short cruises aboard their boat-atelier Le Botin. Thanks to Daubigny, Delpy made the acquaintance of Jean-Baptiste Camille Corot, who encouraged and often advised the young painter. In 1869 Delpy sent his first works to the "Salon des beaux-arts de Paris" and in the same year, he began to paint scenes of snowy landscapes, as Camille Pissarro and Claude Monet did during that particularly harsh and snowy winter. In 1873 and 1874 he presented some of his works at the "Salons", which were very well received by the public. In 1875 he exhibited a snowy landscape for the first time and received compliments from the critic Jules-Antoine Castagnary for his originality.
