Eugene Delacroix

The Massacre at Chios

US$ 798.00

Survivors of the Ottoman reprisal on Chios sit stunned in the foreground, wounded and roped together, while smoke rises behind them and a horseman drags a woman away. Delacroix painted it two years after the event, from newspaper reports, and exhibited it while the war was still being fought. Gros called it the massacre of painting; younger artists took it as a manifesto.

Artist:

Eugene Delacroix (1798-1863) led the French Romantic movement against the cool linearity of Neoclassicism, insisting on colour, movement and emotional force. A journey to Morocco in 1832 transformed his palette permanently. He kept a journal for most of his life that remains one of the most searching accounts of a painter’s thinking ever written.
