One of the 7 or more Moroccan Sketchbooks, 1832-, marks a diversion for Delacroix from Paris and the life of a history painter, architectural painter, and of historical and contemporary events (from the French revolution to popular news items) and literature. He travels to Spain and North Africa, for the people, cultures, landscape, and the way of life for more material.
