Early Life and Training

Jacques Louis David, a leading French painter, was born on August 30, 1748, in Paris, France. He was the central figure in the Neoclassical movement, which emerged as a response to the excesses of the Rococo style. David's work symbolized a significant shift in artistic tastes, moving from the frivolous Rococo to a more serious, classical style marked by austerity, severity, and intense emotion.

Artistic Career

David's artistic career can be divided into three distinct periods:

Legacy

David's legacy extends beyond his own work. He taught numerous pupils, including Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, who went on to become a prominent Neoclassical painter (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Auguste-Dominique_Ingres). David's influence can be seen in the work of many artists, including Henri Matisse and Pablo Picasso, who were influenced by his expressive distortions of form and space.
