The diary kept by Eugène Delacroix from 1822 to 1863 is one of the most interesting texts written by a painter, and reveals a great writer hidden behind the brilliant artist. His fluid, elegant, and often amusing writing touches on all manner of profound, poignant, and lighthearted subjects, from painting and the painter's social and worldly life to grape-picking and descriptions of walks. The result is a quest for the "exquisite" in art and in life.
