The Société d'aquarellistes français (English: Society of French Watercolourists), often in uncontracted form as Société des aquarellistes français, was an association of painters in watercolour in nineteenth-century France. It held annual exhibitions of works by members; the first of these was held in the gallery of Paul Durand-Ruel at 16 rue Laffitte, Paris, in 1879.[1][2] The society ceased to be active in 1896.[3]
