Chicago's Art Institute of Chicago holds 3 works by Eugène Delacroix (1798–1863) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.
Delacroix led French Romanticism and his paintings have an energy and colour intensity that anticipates Impressionism. In person, the surfaces of his large canvases are extraordinary: spontaneous and physical, with passages of painterly virtuosity that Constable himself admired.

The Art Institute of Chicago is at Millennium Park — take the Red or Green CTA line to Adams/Wabash. Allow at least three hours; the Impressionist collection alone warrants a full morning. Illinois residents receive free entry on select days.
