Eugène Delacroix painted The Orphan Girl at the Cemetery around 1823, showing a young woman gazing upward with tears in her eyes. The composition emphasizes her isolation against a dark, atmospheric background that suggests mourning.
This melancholic subject exemplifies Romantic painting's interest in emotion and individual suffering. Delacroix would become famous for dramatic historical scenes, but his early portraits show equal psychological sensitivity. The painting now hangs at the Louvre in Paris.
