''Liberty Leading the People (French: La Liberté guidant le peuple)'' is a renowned painting by French artist Eugène Delacroix, completed in 1830. The work is a monumental and iconic representation of the July Revolution of the same year, which resulted in the overthrow of King Charles X of France. Delacroix, although not an active participant in the insurrection, was inspired by the events and sought to capture the spirit of the struggle for freedom and the fight against oppression.

The painting, which measures 260 cm by 325 cm, is a romantic allegorical interpretation of the revolution. It features a personification of Liberty, depicted as a bare-breasted woman wearing a Phrygian cap, a symbol of freedom since Roman times, leading the people forward over the bodies of the fallen. She holds the tricolor flag of the French Revolution in one hand and a bayoneted musket in the other. The figures surrounding Liberty represent a cross-section of French society at the time, including a worker, a student, and a young boy, all united in the cause of liberty.

Delacroix's use of color, dramatic lighting, and dynamic composition imbues the scene with emotion and energy, capturing the tumultuous atmosphere of the revolution. The painting is celebrated for its embodiment of the Romantic spirit, characterized by a focus on individual heroism, the power of nature, and a fascination with violence and struggle.

''Liberty Leading the People'' was first exhibited at the official Salon of 1831 and was acquired by the French government for the Luxembourg Palace. The painting's political message was seen as controversial, and it was removed from public view shortly after the June Rebellion of 1832. It was returned to public display under the Second Republic and has since become an emblem of the French Republic and the universal quest for freedom.

Today, the painting is housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris and remains one of Delacroix's most famous and influential works, often referenced and reproduced in various forms of media, symbolizing the enduring power of the people in the face of tyranny.
