Delacroix's ambiguous relationship with nature
Baku, March 17, AZERTAC
Paris, 16 Mar Eugène Delacroix claimed himself as a great painter of historical events and relegated his landscape or animal composition to the background, as his “freedom to lead people” witnessed, according to Infobae. The exhibition in Paris is now recovering to explore the process of his creation. From this Wednesday to June 27, “Delacroix and Nature”, installed in museums and previous workshops, linked the French painter (1798-1863) with a topic considered less noble, but nevertheless shows a connection that he enjoyed. “Like many artists of that generation, romantics, he has a special feeling for nature. He likes to walk, draw animals, and make landscape paintings, but paradoxically, the walks he wrote so much in his notebooks rarely come from his work, which he explains to EFE. In doing so, it forces animals such as tigers, lions or horses to show enthusiasm, ferocity, movement, and the preparatory sketch is “very accurate”, but in the final picture the imagination prevails with completely twisted jaws or unrealistic anatomy.
