The leader of French Romanticism, Delacroix's turbulent, coloristically daring canvases—'Liberty Leading the People,' 'The Death of Sardanapalus'—set the 19th century ablaze. His journals are among the great documents of artistic thinking. Works at auction regularly achieve above $5 million; his animal paintings and Orientalist subjects are particularly prized by collectors.
