Anyone even vaguely interested in the great painter Eugène Delacroix should not fail to visit the museum devoted to him. It occupies the last of the dozen or so houses he occupied in Paris during the final years of his life, and, although it is a mere couple of minutes walk from the Saint-Germain-des-Prés metro station it is a quiet...

Eugene Delacroix, the leader of the French Romantic painters, who died in 1863, just before the Impressionist onslaught, had a lot of friends. If not for them this small museum, well-located in the St. Germain area of Paris, would not exist. Practically all of his important work can be found in the Louvre. Here you find a few paintings and... More

Delacroix lived in this house during part of his career and it contains a number of his own works, plus other memorabilia.

Very little of Delacroix himself here. mostly in French and not a great deal to see. If on a pass pop in otherwise may be better avoided. More

In the heart of Quartier Latin and St Germain, off a little square " Place Furstenberg" the Eugene Delacroix painting studio is one of the best kept secrets in Paris. Beautiful home with an inside garden and courtyard where you will discover some of original sketches , studies and paintings of the master. It is the perfect place to visit... More
