Jacques-Louis David (August 30, 1748 – December 29, 1825) was a French artist whose paintings ended the frivolity of the Rococo period. He created several works that were acclaimed by both art lovers and critics, earning him respect across the artistic establishment of his time. David practiced the Neoclassical artistic style. His most sought after artwork pieces are "Napoleon Crossing the Alps" and "The Death of Marat." After his father passed on while he was 9 years old, he was left with his mother and uncles to raise him. His interest in painting became evident, prompting his uncles to send him to a reputable painter and friend, Francois Boucher. While there he learned the Rococo style, but it was fast fading away and so Boucher sent him to Neoclassical painter, Joseph-Marie Vien.
At the age of 18, David registered at the Academie Royale, but things didn't work out quite well as his attempts in competitions failed. He would however later land a government scholarship, Prix de Rome. The scholarship included a trip to Italy and handsomely remunerated artistic commissions.
David later took his trip to Rome and had a moment to study Italian masterpieces before returning to Paris. Back in Paris, things worked out quite well for him, going as far as joining Academie Royale in 1784. He became deeply involved in the French revolution, creating art with political significance. It's the period within which he produced works such as "Joseph Bara," "Death of Lepeletier de Saint-Fargeau," and "Oath of The Tennis Court." In the post revolution, he got arrested for his involvement in politics. When he was later released, he devoted his time to teaching art. David trained artists such as Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres and Franois Gérard. In 1804, he was named court painter by Napoleon I.
David remained a respected figure whose teachings saw him earn respect for years to come. His artistic works are widely sought after, with frame Jacques-Louis David art selling in diverse galleries globally. They are also sold in several other finishing options.
