Publisher Synopsis
"This is an unusually intelligent and original study. It offers, by way of a detailed discussion of David's most significant and ideologically charged late painting, Leonidas at the Pass of Thermopylae, a truly novel perspective on the larger significance of new tendencies in French neoclassical painting and aesthetics in the complex and politically fraught postrevolutionary period of the early nineteenth century." - Alex Potts, University of Michigan" Read more...
