Do you think this is the best?

Liberty Leading The People was painted by Eugéne Delacroix as a response to The French Revolution, as well as as a means of documenting it artistically. The woman in the centre of the painting is Liberty, or rather, personification of that concept, while the surronding figures show other people of different ages and cultures, as well as backgrounds- a defining trait of the revolution protestors itself.
The painting was first exhibited at the Salon of May 1831, it now resides in the Musée du Louvre
