Eugène Delacroix, Marble sculpture in Jardin du Luxembourg, France

The Eugène Delacroix monument is a marble statue by Alfred-Adolphe-Édouard Lepère, set in the Jardin du Luxembourg in the 6th arrondissement. Delacroix is shown seated, a palette and brushes in hand, on a pedestal bearing his name. The white marble stands on a stone base among the gravel walks and lawns near the garden's southern edge.

The marble statue was commissioned by the Société des Artistes Français and inaugurated in 1888, thirty years after Delacroix's death. Alfred-Adolphe-Édouard Lepère carved the seated painter in a meditative pose, holding a palette and brushes. It replaced an earlier plaster model exhibited at the 1885 Salon.

The statue honors one of the most influential French painters of the 19th century and sits among many other artist monuments in the garden that shaped France's artistic heritage. Visitors can see how much this artist influenced the art world of his time.

The statue is located in the 6th arrondissement of Paris and is easily accessible by metro, especially from Saint-Sulpice and Luxembourg stations. The garden itself is open to visitors during daylight hours with free access.

Lepère's statue was funded by public subscription launched after Delacroix's death, and the marble was shown at the 1888 Salon before being set in the garden. Delacroix, who lived 1798–1863, is buried at Père-Lachaise, so this is a memorial rather than a tomb.
