The works of Eugene Delacroix were strongly inspired by the work of Petrus Rubens and other painters from the baroque period, who tried to depict reality and movement in painting using the play of colors, light and shadow. Similarly, Eugene Delacroix uses the aforementioned techniques to depict various situations, people and animals in motion. His favorite, often depicted animal is the horse, a generally artistically demanding animal. However, in all his paintings with horses, Eugene Delacroix manages to depict these beautiful animals in wild movement, revolting, frightened, with their manes blowing in the wind, but also standing calmly and waiting.

Eugene Delacroix (1798-1863). After the untimely death of Gericault, Delacroix became a leading representative of French romanticism. His pictures experimented with colours, and he enlivened his images by placing different colours side by side so as to mix in the eye of the viewer. This opened the door to the birth of Impressionism. Delacroix’s work forms a unified whole, and his talent was able to combine romanticism, classicism, oil painting, graphics and other techniques.
