Best Paintings of all Time

Two paintings who obviously should be here. Both represented the turmoil in which France went between the 18th and 19th centuries, with both moments being majestically captured by Gericault and Delacroix in their paintings.

The Raft of the Medusa (1819) by Géricault (1791–1824)

 

 Liberty Leading the People (1830) by Delacroix (1798–1863)
