9 works across 3 institutions
London holds 9 works by Eugène Delacroix across 3 institutions, including National Gallery, Wallace Collection, and Victoria and Albert Museum.
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.
