Eugène Delacroix is the epitome of romantic painting. He created paintings commenting on the key contemporary political and religious events and showing historical scenes, of which the most famous one is “Liberty Leading the People” with the personification of Marianne, one of the French national symbols. His art was largely influenced by his travels, fascination with the Orient, and inspiration with Rubens’s works. The artist put emphasis on colour, movement, emotions. He is considered the reviver of French painting, whose art had a significant impact on the shaping of impressionism and symbolism.
