In this painting, Liberty leading the People, by Eugene Delacroix, there is a woman leading the people during a battle. It was painted during the French Revolution of 1830 when many people were inspired by the ideal of liberty and individualism. The painting draws your eye to the flag and the woman in the picture, which emphasizes the focus of liberty and the French Republic during the time. The audience was the people in France who supported the revolution as well as outside countries to provoke a response and encourage revolution and freedom. It is a very persuasive image that commands attention and became a symbol of the Revolution as well as the power and will of the people.
