Summary

The Cardinal de Richelieu Saying Mass in the Church of the Palais Royal by Ferdinand-Victor-Eugène Delacroix , 40 x 32.4 cm.

Eugene Delacroix (1798–1863), one of the greatest French Romantic painters, whose use of colour was influential in the development of both Impressionist and Post-Impressionist painting. His inspiration came chiefly from historical or contemporary events or literature, and a visit to Morocco in 1832 provided him with further subjects.
