Ferdinand Victor Eugène Delacroix (26 April 1798 – 13 August 1863) was a French Romantic artist regarded from the outset of his career as the leader of the French Romantic school.[1] Delacroix's use of expressive brushstrokes and his study of the optical effects of colour profoundly shaped the work of the Impressionists, while his passion for the exotic inspired the artists of the Symbolist movement.

From the Publisher:
This is a comprehensive overview with excellent illustrations of the works of the great French master Eugène Delacroix. Having been one of the leading painters of French Romanticism, Delacroix is famous for capturing emotionally charged scenes from the Orient, back then a world commonly mysticized. His harmonious use of color and his unique artistic freedom have made him a role model for modern masters like Monet, van Gogh and Picasso.
