Chapters — Career Periods

The ribbon is divided into shaded bands, one per career chapter. Each chapter groups Charles-André van Loo's works by their historical period — early training, mature practice, final years.

Thumbnails — Dated Works

Every thumbnail is pinned at its precise creation year. A thin gold thread drops from the image to its exact point on the axis. Larger frames mark the artist's masterpieces by rank.
