Overview

This fascinating and elegant book tells the story of five painters at the center of events in Revolutionary France: Jacques Louis-David and his extraordinarily precocious pupils Drouais, Girodet, GΓ©rard, and Gros. Written by a major art historian, it interprets in and new and original way the relationships between these men and the paintings they created.
