Eugene Delacroix’s Liberty Leading the People is an oil painting that stands at 8′ 6″ x 10′ 8″, commemorating the July Revolution of France in 1830.

When it comes to deciding if dueling was a noble form of conflict resolution, both writers seem

“You must love your work, and not be always looking over the edge of it…You must have pride in your own work and in learning to do it well,” George Elliot says in his novel Middlemarch. Elliot suggests that passion is what stops the moans and groans of going to work every day and turns work into fun.

Each character uses a pipe dream in order to be able to become blind to their downfalls and to reality.

The painting, Liberty Leading the People is a very Romanticized painting in many ways. It is very dramatic and it expresses a lot of emotion, including hope, death, devastation, and there are stark differences. The woman with the flag is interesting. She is half nude and it is to suggest both the people's vulnerability but a sign of liberty.
