Durieu-Delacroix

Just to clarify; are you saying that Durieu took this for Delacroix to paint later?
ReplyDeleteProbably, but photography was a novelty at the time, and they may have been tring a new medium.
DeleteUne collaboration importante.
ReplyDeleteAn artist assists another artist, Durieu shared his modèles with Delacroix.
These are utterly magical. A window into the mid 19th century. Yet, that life studio vibe is familiar to me. Total empathy with that model.

DeleteTotally.
