    Eugène Delacroix Horse Frightened by Lightning , 1824–1829 watercolor, white heightening, gum Arabic watercolor on paper, 94 x 126 in. Museum of Fine Arts, Budapest, Hungary Self-Portrait, c.1837 oil on canvas The Louvre, Paris The Artist Eugène Delacroix Born in Saint-Maurice-en-Chalencon, France 1798; died in Paris, France 1863 Ferdinand Victor Eugène Delacroix was a French Romantic artist regarded from the outset of his career as the leader of the French Romantic School. Born in France in 1798, Delacroix was orphaned at the age of 16. In 1816 he began his formal art training, learning the neoclassical style of Jacques- Louis David. Delacroix’s first major painting, The Barque of Dante, was accepted into the Paris Salon in 1822, earning him national fame. He turned away from the neoclassical style, and became one of the best-known Romantic painters, favoring imaginative scenes from literature and historical events. Highly acclaimed works include Death of Sardanapalus and Liberty Leading the People , a painting inspired by France’s uprising against King Charles X in 1830. In 1832, Delacroix spent 6 months in North Africa, and created many paintings inspired by Arabic culture and the sun-drenched landscape. Delacroix continued to be very popular in his lifetime, exhibiting many works in the Paris salon, and receiving commissions to decorate important Parisian buildings. Delacroix died on August 13, 1863. Art Movement Romanticism The Romantic Movement was inspired in part by the ideas of Rousseau, who declared that “Man is born free, but is everywhere in chains!” Romanticism emerged from the desire for freedom – political freedom, freedom of thought, of feeling, of action, of worship, of speech, and of taste.

Why do we have works of art? Why do we need works of art? I decided to explore these questions by deconstructing the ideo - logical workings and conflicting narratives contained in a painting that has attracted and puzzled me for many years. The Massacres of Chios was first exhibited at the famous Paris Salon of August 1824. It is based on the massacre of thousands of civilians on the island of Chios in 1822.1 It measures 4.17m x 3.54m, a scale usual for history painting 2. It sig - nalled Delacroix’s ambition to become a great artist,3 and its full title, Scenes from the Massacres of Chios; Greek Families Awaiting Death or Slavery, etc. (see the various reports and newspaper accounts), draws attention to the painting’s simul taneous depiction of several narratives over time. The lack of a single focus, the brilliant colour and the “roughness” of the drawing and brushwork, caused a “storm or controversy” (Fraser: 2004), and earned Delacroix the epithets of Revolutionary, Romantic and Liberal. It continues to attract controversy to this day 4 but is now regarded as one of the greatest works of Romanticism, and counted amongst other great anti-war paintings such as Picasso’s Guernica (1937) and Goya’s The Third of May 1808 (1814-15). THE ARTIST – FERDINAND VICTOR EUGÈNE DELACROIX (1798-1863) Eugène Delacroix was born into wealth and bourgeois privilege, and received an excellent classical education, but lost everything by the time he was sixteen.

    We can also trace that peculiar social movement which led some factories, ships, restaurants, and households to clean up their backstages to such an extent that, like monks, Communists, or German aldermen, their guards are always up and there is no place where their front is down, while at the same time members of the audience become sufficiently entranced with the society's id to explore the places that had been cleaned up for them [Erving Goffman, The Presentation of Self (New York: Anchor Press, 1959), p. 247].

This mark scheme includes any amendments made at the standardisation meeting attended by all examiners and is the scheme which was used by them in this examination. The standardisation meeting ensures that the mark scheme covers the candidates’ responses to questions and that every examiner understands and applies it in the same correct way. As preparation for the standardisation meeting each examiner analyses a number of candidates’ scripts: alternative answers not already covered by the mark scheme are discussed at the meeting and legislated for. If, after this meeting, examiners encounter unusual answers which have not been discussed at the meeting they are required to refer these to the Principal Examiner. It must be stressed that a mark scheme is a working document, in many cases further developed and expanded on the basis of candidates’ reactions to a particular paper. Assumptions about future mark schemes on the basis of one year’s document should be avoided; whilst the guiding principles of assessment remain constant, details will change, depending on the content of a particular examination paper.

    Art 232: History of Western Art II David McCarthy Rhodes College, Spring 2006 414 Clough, Ext. 3663 417 Clough, TTH: 12:30-1:45 Office Hours: MWF: CRN: 20121 1:00-3:00 and by appointment. COURSE OBJECTIVES AND DESCRIPTION The objectives of the course are as follows: (1) to provide students with a comprehensive overview of the major images, artists, and movements of Western art from the Renaissance to the present; (2) to integrate these images with the broader social and intellectual history of their respective period; and (3) to help students develop the visual and analytical skills needed for further study in the history of art. Among the themes we will examine are the following: the development of naturalism in Renaissance art and its eventual abandonment in the late nineteenth century, the use of art as a form of political or spiritual propaganda, the continuing debt to classical ideals and styles, the effect of new technologies and materials on architecture, the development of new styles over the past century, and the changing status of the artist within Western society. Art 232 is the second half of a survey designed to introduce students to the history of Western art from its beginnings in the prehistoric period to the twenty-first century. A three-hour course, Art 232 satisfies the fine arts requirement. Students are not expected to have had any previous experience with art history. Art 232 is a lecture course with some classroom discussion. TEXTBOOKS Sylvan Barnet. A Short Guide to Writing About Art, 8th edition. New York: Longman, 2003.
