1832. Moroccan Military Exercises. In 1832, he traveled to Morocco and Algeria. From then on, all his work would be influenced by the colors, the intense light, the sensuality, and the themes of that "exotic" culture (the fascination for distant, idealized, mysterious worlds is very Romantic; that is why Delacroix became one of the most representative painters of Romanticism). At the same time, this colorfulness and passion for the exotic would greatly influence the artists who would "initiate" modern art (Cézanne himself, the father of modernity, said that all the painters of his generation painted in Delacroix's language).
