The image of Eugene Delacroix as an august artist with an august
oeuvre was initially frozen into place by posthumous tributes and
it has continued to the present. He was one of the finest yet least
understood painters of the nineteenth century, the golden age of
the French Romantic movement. He is remembered best for his
masterpiece, La Liberte guidant le people, but few of his works
have received the kind of constant, fascinated revisiting that has
sealed the iconic status of Theodore Gericault's Le Radeau de la
Meduse, for example. This book is one of the first to look
carefully at individual paintings by Delacroix, especially at one
of his most important works - a key but often overlooked painting
from early Romanticism's heyday, Scene des massacres de Scio.
