Summary "Journal de Eugène Delacroix, Tome 2 (de 3)" by Eugène Delacroix is a personal journal written in the mid-19th century. This work provides insight into Delacroix's thoughts, experiences, and artistic observations during his travels through Europe, with particular emphasis on art, culture, and the landscapes he encounters. The journal serves not only as a reflection of his personal life but also as a commentary on the artistic movements and cultural settings of his time. The opening of the journal begins with Delacroix recounting his travels, starting from Brussels on July 6, where he comments on his travel companions and the accommodations. He shares his thoughts on the aesthetic qualities of the city, including his observations of local parks and architecture that he finds lacking compared to France. As he moves through different cities, Delacroix visits various churches and museums, specifically noting impressive artworks like stained glass windows and paintings from masters such as Rubens. His reflections on art, aesthetics, and personal sentiments convey his emotional and intellectual engagement with the world around him. This portion sets the tone for a travelogue infused with artistic critique, personal musings, and a deep appreciation for both beauty and culture. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
