"Marchand de Fez" (English: "Merchant of Fez") is a painting by the French Romantic artist Eugène Delacroix, a leading painter of the 19th century known for his expressive brushstrokes and study of optical effects of color. While the exact date of creation for "Marchand de Fez" is not well-documented, Delacroix's interest in North African culture and scenery was notably inspired by his travels to Morocco in 1832, which profoundly influenced his palette and thematic choices.

The painting depicts a merchant from Fez, a city in Morocco, which during the time was part of the larger cultural region known as the Maghreb. Delacroix's work often explored Orientalist themes, a common fascination among European artists of the period, who were intrigued by the exoticism of the East. "Marchand de Fez" is characterized by its vivid coloration and dynamic composition, hallmarks of Delacroix's style, which sought to capture the essence of the subject through a combination of realism and romanticized exoticism.

The merchant is typically portrayed in traditional attire, surrounded by the wares and artifacts of his trade, which may include textiles, pottery, or other goods. The setting and attire in the painting reflect Delacroix's attention to detail and his desire to convey the authenticity of North African culture as he perceived it.

"Marchand de Fez" contributes to the understanding of Orientalism in European art and provides insight into the ways in which North African culture was represented and sometimes idealized in Western art during the 19th century. The work is part of a larger body of Delacroix's paintings that celebrate and document the people, landscapes, and customs he encountered during his travels.

As with many of Delacroix's paintings, "Marchand de Fez" is appreciated for its contribution to the Romantic movement and its influence on subsequent generations of artists. The painting's current location, provenance, and exhibition history are important aspects of its legacy and can provide additional context for its significance within Delacroix's oeuvre and the broader history of art.
