Jacques Louis David - Paintings
Jacques-Louis David, a leading Jacobin, was the most important French painter of the Revolution era. He is also considered a pioneer of neo-classical painting in France.
Born on August 30, 1748 in Paris.
Died on December 29, 1825 in Brussels.
Inspired by the study of antiquity during his stay in Italy, Jacques-Louis David focused on neo-classical painting. With the painting of the "Oath of the Horatii", which boasts by a clear composition and the reduced image elements, he celebrated great successes and defined the most important stylistic devices of Classicism. During the French Revolution, David used his pathetic-looking paintings in order to express his political views. In 1795, he was appointed First Painter at Napoleon's court. In his Brussels exile, after the fall of Napoleon, he increasingly created portraits of other displaced convent members again.		 Jacques Louis David
