Liberty Leading the People
“Liberty leading the People” / Musée du Louvre, Paris (France)
“La liberté guidant le peuple” Eugène Delacroix (1830)
En Anglais SVP !
😀 Fun fact: this famous painting was used by Coldplay as a cover for their album, “Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends” (2008). But do you know the story behind this painting? 🤔😅🧐
👉 The famous painting “Liberty leading the People” doesn’t represent the assault on the Bastille Jail on 14th July 1789, in Paris (France). Actually, it depicts the second French Revolution : the “July Revolution” (1830), more specifically its “3 glorious days”.
