EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic portrait of Eugene Delacroix, captured by Marcellin-Gilbert Desboutin in 1889. The renowned French artist is depicted with an intense direct gaze, his facial hair adding to his distinguished appearance. Dressed in a stylish coat, Delacroix exudes an air of sophistication that befits his status as one of the most influential painters of the Romantic era. Desboutin's etching technique beautifully captures the dark and mysterious ambiance surrounding Delacroix, emphasizing both his artistic genius and introspective nature. This photogravure not only pays homage to a great painter but also serves as a testament to Desboutin's own artistic prowess.
