Jacques Louis David (1748-1825)

David was the first painter to revolt against the vapid character that Classicism had assumed in the Academies and to give it a new vitality. Kenneth Clark traces his development, from its early realization in "The Death of Marat," of the dream that art can be used to influence man's conduct.
