Tijger 1854

"Tijger" (Tiger), a pencil drawing by Eugène Delacroix, depicts a powerful tiger prowling through a lush, forested landscape. Created in 1854, this work showcases Delacroix's mastery of capturing animal movement and energy through expressive lines and shading. The tiger's imposing figure, contrasted against the delicate foliage and distant trees, creates a sense of dynamic tension and untamed wilderness. This artwork is a testament to Delacroix's fascination with the natural world and his ability to convey its raw power through his art.
