What does the The Metropolitan Museum of Art say about this 19th century work of art made by Eugène Delacroix? (© Copyright - by The Metropolitan Museum of Art - The Metropolitan Museum of Art)

One of Delacroix's most striking prints, "Macbeth Consulting the Witches" owes its dynamic technique to the lithographs of Goya, whose monumental bullfight scenes had just been published in Bordeaux. Datable to 1825, this is probably Delacroix's first important work inspired by Shakespeare. An impression hand-colored in oils by the artist exists, suggesting that he was considering a related painting. The subject occurs in act 4, scene 1, where Macbeth meets the three witches for a second time to ask them about his future.
