# Moroccan Women [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [DELACROIX, Eugène]() - Date: 1801-1850 - Technique: Watercolour ## Commentary The number of major paintings that derive from Delacroix's Moroccan notes and sketchbooks is clear proof of the impact of the experience. They include the Jewish Wedding in Morocco, The Fanatics of Tangier and The Sultan of Morocco and his Entourage. In the composition of these works, Delacroix scrupulously observed the notes and sketches that he had made in situ. Thus the decor of the Jewish Wedding in Morocco exactly matches that recorded in a watercolour in the notebook, while his notes give an exact description of the painting that was to come. ## Related artworks - [A Mad Woman]() - [A Moroccan Saddling a Horse]() - [A Mortally Wounded Brigand Quenches his Thirst]() - [A Vase of Flowers on a Console]() - [A Young Tiger Playing with its Mother]() - [Apollo Slays Python \(detail\)]() - [Apollo Slays Python]() - [Apollo Slays Python]() - [Apollo Vanquishing the Python]() - [Arab Fantasia]() - [Arab Horses Fighting in a Stable]() - [Aspasia]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
