Real del Sarte was born in Paris as the daughter of François Delsarte, and 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.[1] She became a teacher there while still attending classes and married her cousin, the sculptor Louis Désiré Réal on 1 March 1887.
