Dynamische Kombinationen: Eugène Delacroix' Rekursive Bildpraxis (Phoenix) (German Edition) [German]

By Joel Fischer

The work of Eug ne Delacroix features many self-references, whereby the artist drew on his earlier compositions, themes and motifs or translated them into different techniques. Such references equate to a form of painterly self-reflection on his own artistic production. Their diversity and irregularity are also important indicators of the upheaval and challenges of working as an artist in the 19th century. This monograph is the first to focus systematically on repetitions and their various manifestations in Delacroix's work. It analyses their changing combinations, in which personal, aesthetic and commercial motives merge to create a complex, recursive pictorial practice.
