"A Study for The Orpheus Group in The Peers' Library and Two Studies for Mercury and Mars from the Salon de la Paix: Three Drawings by Eugène Delacroix" is a collection of works by the renowned French Romantic artist Ferdinand Victor Eugène Delacroix (1798–1863). Delacroix, known for his expressive brushstrokes and emphasis on color over linearity, was a pivotal figure in the Romantic movement and his influence extended into the Impressionist period.

The first drawing, "A Study for The Orpheus Group," relates to Delacroix's commission for the decoration of the Library of the Chamber of Peers in the Palais du Luxembourg, Paris. This project, undertaken between 1838 and 1847, was one of his most significant public commissions and included a series of paintings depicting scenes from Greek mythology. The Orpheus Group is part of this series, illustrating the mythological poet Orpheus who charmed all living things with his music.

The other two studies, "Mercury" and "Mars," are preparatory works for the Salon de la Paix at the Hôtel de Ville, Paris. This salon was one of several reception rooms Delacroix was commissioned to decorate in the 1850s. The figures of Mercury, the messenger of the gods, and Mars, the god of war, were intended to embody themes of peace and strength in the aftermath of the turmoil of the 1848 Revolution in France.

Delacroix's drawings are an essential aspect of his artistic process, providing insight into his methods and the evolution of his grand compositions. These studies exemplify his mastery of movement and anatomy, as well as his ability to convey complex emotions and narratives through his art. The drawings are held in various art collections and continue to be studied for their contribution to the understanding of Delacroix's oeuvre and the broader context of 19th-century French art.

As a testament to his enduring legacy, Delacroix's works, including these studies, are frequently exhibited in museums around the world and are considered key examples of Romantic art. They not only showcase Delacroix's technical skill but also reflect the historical and cultural milieu in which he created his art.
