portraits of Napoleon Bonaparte painted by
the French artist Jacques-Louis David

of the real crossing that Napoleon and his
army made along the Alps through the
Great St Bernard Pass in May 1800.
It has become one of the most commonly
reproduced images of Napoleon.

Robert Henri Labrouste Charles Garnier


Types of Neoclassical
Architecture:
1. Temple Style- building
design was based on ancient
temple.
La Madeleine de Paris
British Museum in London
Pantheon in Rome
2. Palladian Style- based on Andrea
Palladio style of villa construction, some
of the buildings feature a Balustrade,
which is a railing with vertical supports
(called Balusters or spindles) along the
edge of the roof.
Robert Adam- one of the
famous architects in the era.
was a Scottish architect and
designer who, with his brother
James (1730–94), transformed
Palladian Neoclassicism in
England into the airy, light,
elegant style that bears their
name.
White House in
United Kingdom
3. Classical Block Style- the building features a
rectangular or square plan, with flat roof and
exterior rich in classical detail. The exterior features
a repeated classical pattern or series of arches and/
or columns. The overall impression of such a
building was that it was a huge, classically-
decorated rectangular block. Classical block
architecture also flourished in the United States,
particularly in New York.

Romantic
Painting
1.Jean Louis Theodore
Gericault
His masterpieces were
energetic, powerful,
brilliantly colored, and
tightly composed (putting
together).
1.Jean Louis Theodore Gericault
was a French painter and
lithographer, whose best-known
painting is The Raft of the Medusa.
Despite his short life, he was one of the
pioneers of the Romantic movement.
The Raft of Medusa
The Raft of Medusa
depicts a dramatic moment and all the
emotions human beings can feel in such a
situation: fear, pain, hope, madness. To do this
painting Géricault studied for a long time the
effects of the refraction of light on the human
body, and for this reason, he drew a lot of
preparatory sketches.
Charging Chasseur
Charging Chasseur
This painting is symbolic of French Romanticism and
has a motif similar to Jacques Louis David's Napoleon
Crossing the Alps (see Related Paintings below).
However, in this piece, there are various non-classical
characteristics such as its dramatic diagonal
arrangement and vigorous paint handling.
It features a Napoleonic cavalry officer ready to
attack, slightly looking back, as though to command
the others to charge with him. A triumphant and proud
Insane Woman
Insane Woman- Unlike Neoclassicism, the focus of
Romanticism was to unleash the imagination and
embrace the darker side of humanity. Gericault,
like other Romantic artists, had an interest in
portraying a person while revealing their emotions
and the intentions of their mind.
Gericault believed that a person’s true character could
be revealed in a person’s face especially in their
moments of death or in madness. The “psychic facts”
of the Insane Woman are represented by depicting the
woman looking away from the audience with her eyes
red from suffering. The artwork communicates to the
audience that she is not a typical idealized because
she is not young and beautiful, yet Gericault idealizes
her through her composed emotions. By doing so
Gericault reveals another side of humanity that has
gone unseen since the Greek Hellenistic period

Eugene Delacroix
Ferdinand Victor Eugène Delacroix- was a French Romantic artist
regarded from the outset of his career as the leader of the French Romantic
school.
Delacroix took for his inspiration the art of Peter Paul Rubens and painters
of the Venetian Renaissance, with an attendant emphasis on color and
movement rather than clarity of outline and carefully modeled form.
Dramatic and romantic content characterized the central themes of his
maturity and led him not to the classical models of Greek and Roman art,
but to travel in North Africa, in search of the exotic. Friend and spiritual
heir to Théodore Géricault, Delacroix was also inspired by Lord Byron,

July 26, 1830.

The Burial of
Sardine
The Burial of Sardine- is an annual Spanish ceremony
celebrating the end of carnival and other festivities. The
"Burials" generally consist of a carnival parade that parodies
a funeral procession and culminates with the burning of a
symbolic figure, usually a representation of a sardine. The
"Burial of the Sardine” is celebrated on Ash Wednesday and
is a symbolic burial of the past to allow society to be reborn,
transformed, and with new vigor.
