Marie Magdeleine Real del Sarte or Real del Sarte (23 June 1853 – 16 March 1927) was a French painter and model.
Real del Sarte was born in Paris as the daughter of singer and singing teacher François Delsarte and singing teacher Rosine Charlotte Andrien (1817-1891).[1] She attended the Académie Julian from 1874 where she was taught by Gustave Boulanger, Tony Robert-Fleury and Jules Lefebvre. She is the blond girl in the middle of Marie Bashkirtseff's 1881 painting In the Studio.[2] She became a teacher there while still attending classes and married her cousin, the sculptor Louis Désiré Réal on 1 March 1887. After that she began signing her works Real del Sarte. Her son Maxime Real del Sarte became a sculptor. Her painting Do You Want to Model? was one of the works featured in Women Painters of the World by Walter Shaw Sparrow (1905); one of the first books that treated 19th-century female artists as worthy of serious attention.[3] Her niece Thérèse Geraldy was her pupil.
Sarte died in Paris.
