What to look for

Romanticism: Neoclassicism is cool and linear; Romanticism is turbulent and colourful. Realism, which followed, replaced drama with ordinary life.

Pierre-Jean David (12 March 1788 – 4 January 1856) was a French sculptor, medalist and active freemason. He adopted the name David d'Angers, following his entry into the studio of the painter Jacques-Louis David in 1809 as a way of both expressing his patrimony and distinguishing himself from the master painter.
