''Tasso in the Madhouse'' is an 1839 oil painting by the French Romantic artist Eugène Delacroix. The painting depicts the Italian poet Torquato Tasso in the Hospital of St. Anne in Ferrara, where he was confined for several years due to his erratic behavior, which was then thought to be madness. Tasso, known for his epic poem "Jerusalem Delivered," was a prominent literary figure of the Renaissance whose personal struggles with mental illness and political intrigue have become legendary.

Delacroix, renowned for his expressive brushwork and study of the optical effects of color, was drawn to the dramatic and emotional aspects of Tasso's story. In this work, he captures the poet's sense of isolation and despair, using somber tones and a turbulent composition to evoke the inner turmoil of the protagonist. The painting is a fine example of Delacroix's thematic interest in the suffering of great historical figures and his ability to convey psychological depth through his art.

The painting measures 132.5 cm by 165.5 cm and is part of the collection at the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Lyon in Lyon, France. ''Tasso in the Madhouse'' is considered an important work in Delacroix's oeuvre, reflecting the artist's fascination with literary subjects and his mastery in translating them into powerful visual narratives. The painting has been analyzed for its historical context, its place within Delacroix's body of work, and its contribution to the Romantic movement in art, which emphasized emotion and individualism over classical order and restraint.
