Royal Tiger, 1829, Lithograph; second state of four, Image: 12 15/16 x 18 7/16 in. (32.8 x 46.9 cm), Prints, Eugène Delacroix (French, Charenton-Saint-Maurice 1798–1863 Paris), Delacroix had great empathy with the natural world and was fascinated by animals, although he seems never to have encountered untamed ones in the wild, even during his trip to Morocco in 1832. Having to rely upon the resources of the Paris zoo, he began studying felines there in the late 1820s, probably not long before making this lithograph
