1831 art exhibition in Paris
Liberty Leading the People by Eugène Delacroix

The Salon of 1831 was an art exhibition held at the Louvre in Paris between June and August 1831. It was the first Salon during the July Monarchy and the first to be held since the Salon of 1827, as a planned exhibition of 1830 was cancelled due to the French Revolution of 1830.

Exhibition

Liberty Leading the People by Eugène Delacroix was amongst the most notable works exhibited. Painted in Romantic style it depicts the recent July Revolution that had brought the reigning monarch Louis Philippe I to power over his cousin Charles X. It features the Liberty (also identified at Marianne) leading the Paris crowds forwards. The revolution was also represented in two paintings in The Battle of Rue de Rohan and The Battle of Porte Saint-Denis by Hippolyte Lecomte. Also on display were two portraits by Alexandre-Marie Colin of the poet Jean-Georges Farcy, killed during the storming of the Tuileries Palace.

History paintings on display featured several works by Paul Delaroche who included two scenes from British history The Children of Edward depicting the Princes in the Tower and Cromwell Opening the Coffin of Charles I. Eugène Delacroix also exhibited The Murder of the Bishop of Liège based on a scene from the novel Quentin Durward by Walter Scott.

Horace Vernet, the director of the French Academy in Rome sent in several portraits he had produced in Italy including Portrait of Louise Vernet depicting his daughter and future wide of Paul Delaroche. His other works on display included Italian Brigands Surprised by Papal Troops. The Salon featured elements of Orientalism, an increasingly fashionable genre that would grow through subsequent years in the wake of the French invasion of Algeria in 1830.

It was followed by the Salon of 1833, the last time the Salon was staged biannually as future exhibitions from 1834 were held every year.
