It has been a while since I added to the 1855 set of Delacroix’s reference photographs, taken by Jean Louis Marie Eugène Durieu. These early images appear dark and hazy, due to the limits of photographic technology of the time, but all the more appealing for it.

A woman has been arrested after defacing a painting by Eugène Delacroix at the Louvre satellite museum in Lens. The 28-year-old told police she had scrawled “AE911” with an indelible marker on the painting, Liberty Leading the People, to draw attention to an organisation that appears to believe the 9/11 attacks were a conspiracy…

A Liberdade Guiando o Povo, Eugène Delacroix, 1830.

A obra mais famosa do pintor Delacroix representa, alegoricamente, a liberdade ao fim da Revolução de Julho de 1830 (Les Trois Glorieuses) que pôs fim ao período da Restauração Francesa com queda de Carlos X. A figura central empunha a bandeira tricolor como símbolo da reconquista do orgulho da nação após a queda da monarquia e utiliza o barrete frígio (espécie de touca) que foi utilizada como marca da liberdade durante a Primeira República Francesa. O artista retrata o dia 28 de julho, dia em que os rebeldes, representados por estudantes, soldados e burgueses, romperam as barricadas e substituiram o monarca que estava no poder. O clima dramático da tela foi criado com o contratante entre as cores do céu e a das vestimentas dos soldados através da técnica do chiaroscuro e também da combinação dos detalhes do realismo com a emoção do romantismo.
