DigitalDelacroix
Artificial intelligence in the service of artistic heritage
The project
The Digital Delacroix project, led by Barthélémy Jobert, aims to deepen our understanding of Eugène Delacroix's work using artificial intelligence, 3D visualisation and physico-chemical analyses.
This interdisciplinary initiative, which brings together several laboratories of Sorbonne Université, sets out to develop new tools for analysing and exploring the master's work.
The project draws on a vast digital corpus comprising Delacroix's writings, paintings, drawings and prints, as well as data collected during the recent restoration of the library of the French National Assembly.
This programme is supported by the Schmidt Sciences Humanities and AI Virtual Institute (HAVI) (opens in a new tab).
