Jacques-Louis David

Jacques-Louis David (French Jacques-Louis David; August 30, 1748, Paris - December 29, 1825, Brussels) - French painter and teacher, a major representative of French Neoclassicism in painting. The artist praises the power and beauty of the human body. Antique motives, so skillfully embodied by David in painting, admire us to this day, allowing us to return to those distant times and plunge into the epic battles of ancient peoples.
