Listen "10. Jacques-Louis David"
Episode Synopsis
Referred to as a "political chameleon," he painted whatever the man in power at the time wanted. Whether it was in the frivolous Rococo style for Louis XVI, propaganda for the French Revolution, or commissioned portraits for the self-appointed Emperor of France, Napoleon Bonaparte, he didn't care as long as he kept his head! In this episode, we'll talk about Jacques-Louis David, the most famous artist of the Neoclassical period, as well as one of his most famous works, The Emperor Napoleon in His Study at the Tuileries.
