Book Description
Lee Johnson's catalogue raisonne of Delacroix's paintings, published in three instalments of two volumes each from 1981 to 1989, has become the point of reference for all subsequent Delacroix scholarship; its authority is absolute, and it is unlikely ever to be superseded. Its unparalleledcontribution has been universally recognised, and in France it is considered the definitive work on the subject. The Fourth Supplement takes into account the numerous findings which have emerged since the Third Supplement was published in 1993. It contains not only relevant information from therecently discovered archive from the descendants of Delacroix's heir and valuable new documentary material, but also many new paintings, of which a significant number are illustrated. As the world authority on Delacroix, Lee Johnson is regularly consulted by dealers and collectors alike: thissupplement makes an invaluable addition to an already invaluable catalogue. A reprint of the Third Supplement, currently only available as part of the reprinted two-volume set of Volumes III and IV, is also included.

Book Description
Known as the master of French Romanticism for his energetic paintings, Eugène Delacroix (1798–1863) was also a consummate draftsman. Yet his drawings remained largely unknown to the public during his lifetime. Beginning with a posthumous studio sale in 1864, however, these drawings have been sought after and widely appreciated for the incomparable insight they afford into the artist’s process. This handsome book, one of the few to explore the topic in depth, provides new insight into Delacroix’s drawing practice, paying particular attention to his methods and the ways in which he pushed the boundaries of the medium. It showcases a selection of more than one hundred drawings, many of which have been rarely seen, from Karen B. Cohen’s world-renowned collection. The works highlighted here range from finished watercolors to sketches, from copies after old masters and popular prints to drawings preparatory to many of Delacroix’s most important painting and print projects. Illustrated with a wealth of comparative images, the book examines the essential role of drawing in the artist’s formation and aesthetic practice, while two shorter texts trace the history of the collecting of Delacroix’s work at the Metropolitan Museum and present important new research on his materials and techniques. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 14.0px Verdana}
