Eugène Delacroix’s Liberty Leading the People, 1830 Eugène Delacroix was born in the Age of Enlightenment but his artistic work belongs to the Romantic era. In this painting we see the political ideals of freedom and liberty of the 18th century once again asserting themselves, but expressed in a different way. Delacroix’s work seeks to express them through emotion and in his technique we see the use of allegory, and a rejection of precise drawing (reason) giving instead prominence to freely brushed color. His subject – a political event of historic importance -shows “Liberty” Leading the People – reflecting a commitment to individual freedom for all people. We see the allegory of Liberty in the form of robust woman of the people wearing the Phrygian cap and waving the tricolore of the French Revolution. In the background we notice that the city is on fire emphasizing the drama of the moment and highlighting the importance of the street fighters –romantic heros -in the foreground. We see stark emotion such as fierceness and determination in the eyes of the participants. The freedom fighters are climbing over the dead bodies of their comrades. It is popular rather than aristocratic - the former 3rd estate - social classes are depicted – the man in the top hat is probably bourgeois and the boy holding pistols, urban working poor, may have been the inspiration for Hugo’s Les Misérables. Delacroix’s painting, Liberty Leading the People, conveys the ideas of post-revolutionary nationalism (loyalty to the ideals expressed in the Declaration of Rights of Man and of the Citizen) using as its means the artistic sensibility of romanticism. (Bold phrases represent attributes of romanticism.)
