Ferdinand Victor Eugène Delacroix (April 26, 1798 - August 13, 1863) was a French Romantic artist. As a painter and muralist, Delacroix's use of expressive brushstrokes and his study of the optical effects of color profoundly shaped the work of the Impressionists, while his passion for the exotic inspired the artists of the Symbolist movement. A fine lithographer, Delacroix illustrated various works of William Shakespeare, Walter Scott and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. Delacroix took for his inspiration the art of Rubens and painters of the Venetian Renaissance. A generation of impressionists was inspired by Delacroix's work. Emile Champmartin, circa 1840.
