{"product_id":"eugene-delacroix-death-of-sardanapalus-art-print","title":"Eugène Delacroix — Death of Sardanapalus | Art Print","description":"\u003cp\u003eA bearded king in white robes and a jewelled turban reclines on a vast red-draped bed, head on his hand, watching the chaos below. A woman lies across the bed, her head on her arm; at lower right a muscular man grips a woman and raises a dagger to her throat, while another woman reclines stunned beside a gilded elephant head. A groom in a red turban hauls a white horse in gold harness at left; gold vessels, jewels and cloth spill across the floor, and smoke rises at right.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDelacroix painted the canvas in 1827 and showed it at the Paris Salon that year, where it was controversial and polarising. The story of the Assyrian king comes from the Greek historian Diodorus Siculus, and the painting was inspired by Lord Byron's play Sardanapalus of 1821. The full-size canvas is in the Louvre; a smaller replica made in 1844 is in the Philadelphia Museum of Art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEugène Delacroix (1798–1863) was the leading painter of French Romanticism. Born at Charenton-Saint-Maurice, near Paris, he trained from 1815 under Pierre-Narcisse Guérin, learned from Géricault, Rubens and the Venetians, and made his name with The Barque of Dante (1822), The Massacre at Chios (1824) and Liberty Leading the People (1830). His journey to Morocco and Spain with a French diplomatic mission in 1832 produced The Women of Algiers (1834), Jewish Wedding in Morocco (c. 1839) and, two decades later, Lion Hunt in Morocco (1855). His work is held by the Louvre, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the State Hermitage Museum and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach print is made to our \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/archival-museum-standards\"\u003eArchival Museum Standards\u003c\/a\u003e: a 12-ink giclée, printed to order.
