1820 -1863 · Jacob, Christ and great sacred decorations
Virgin, Jacob's struggle, burial and storm on the lake show Delacroix translating the sacred through the effort of the body, darkness, compassion and light.
Eugène Delacroix received numerous religious commissions for churches and public buildings, while covering certain subjects in easel works. The Virgin of the Sacred Heart, originally commissioned from Géricault then executed by Delacroix, combines protection, group and light. Jacob's Struggle with the Angel, painted in the Chapel of the Holy Angels in Saint-Sulpice, makes combat a physical and spiritual test; trees, weapons laid down and travelers broaden the story. The Entombment, Pietà and lamentations confront the weight of the dead body and gestures of compassion. Christ on Lake Gennesaret or asleep during the storm returns several times: the fragile boat, the panicked apostles and the calm of Christ organize the opposition between fear and faith. Delacroix dialogues with Rubens, Titian and the ancient masters, but his color and touch give sacred subjects a modern urgency. The selection "Religious works of Eugène Delacroix" notably compares The Virgin of the Sacred Heart and Jacob's Struggle with the Angel. His reading favors color.
Delacroix's sacredness comes through resistance: Jacob struggles, the disciples row and those close to him support a body whose weight makes faith tangible.
