The article reconstructs the framework of thought behind Delacroix's preoccupation with the lion and tiger, starting from a conversation he had with Taine in 1863. From the details of this conversation, with their elliptical references to physiognomy and comparative anatomy, from the paintings and from remarks in the Journal, it is possible to show that Delacroix saw the lion and tiger not only as embodiments of nature, but as simpler reflections of the good and evil in man. His personal synthesis of ideas accompanies the entire production of his feline oeuvre, with particular strength in his transformation of the theme of the Lion Hunt.
