Eugene Delacroix: Liberty Leading People, 1830

Venus of Melos

Liberty Liberty is a bellicose leader not a peacemaker Is an allegory, not an historical figure Dramatic energy, convinction Leading a mixed group of males Ambiguity Semi-nudity of classical sculture and rought proletarian cloth of the working class Is idealized, but at the same time concrete and sensual Prototipal women-warrior in the history of art

Liberty and sensuality Domesticity is irrilevant for Delacroix: a dandy Liberty has the same sensual vividness of other paintings
