About this book

Necklines: The Art of Jacques-Louis David after the Terror by Lajer-Burcharth, Ewa. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780300074215.

This strikingly original book examines the artistic and personal crisis of French painter Jacques-Louis David during the aftermath of the Reign of Terror. David, twice imprisoned, struggled to recast his artistic identity in a world of disintegrating political and cultural values. The book casts new light on the artist`s self-representations, his Sabine Women, and the importance of his unfinished portrait of Juliette Rcamier.
