Transformações do UT pictura poesis e dos gêneros de pintura no século; as Estações Hartmann de Delacroix (1856-1863)

Abstract

The research process began with a proposal to apply the concepts of Pierre Bourdieu - trajectory, field and habitus - to the analysis of the process of elaboration of the four screens of Hartmann Stations (1856-63) by Eugène Delacroix. Taking as reference the concepts of trajectory and field, a survey and analysis of the most relevant elements for the choices made by Delacroix in the period of elaboration of the works in question and the meaning of these options within the historical and cultural context was carried out. This stage included the analysis of the circle of social and family relations in which the painter moved, his relations with characters from the artistic, literary and political spheres, the positions he assumed in aesthetic and political debates of the time, the affiliation with artistic currents and lineages . Continuing the attempt to apply Bourdieu's concepts to the approach of the corpus studied, we used the concept of habitus for the identification of social, family, formation and group or "order" values ​​that had importance in the process of constitution of the work of Delacroix.
