Eugène Delacroix (Ferdinand Victor Eugene Delacroix) does not have an image.
Eugène Delacroix
Painter
(Saint-Maurice, France, 1798 - 1863, Paris, France)
ULAN note: Delacroix was one of the most innovative and successful painters of the first half of the 19th century. He is known as the last great history painter and his art is the ideal of Romanticism in the visual arts. Delacroix's career is marked by the paradox between the revolutionary and the conventional. He was in conflict with the artist Ingres and was seen as the leading figure of the French Romantic movement; he was famed for undermining the tradition of painting established by David, yet he benefited from official patronage from the beginning of the Restoration (1814-1830) until the Second Empire (1852-1870). French painter.
