Portrait of Marie ID de tableau:: 62869 Voir la galerie dans Suède |
Portrait of Marie 1769 Oil on canvas, 66 x 54 cm Musee National des Beaux-Arts, Algiers As with many other young artists, David used his close relatives as models for his first portraits. As well as his uncle Buron, he also painted his aunt, Marie-Josephe, and her daughter, Marie-Franeoise, who had supported his wish to become a painter. Both paintings show a directness of approach and a sympathetic contact between artist and sitter that anticipate David's later successes in portraiture.

Hector ID de tableau:: 62870 Voir la galerie dans Suède |
Hector Oil on canvas, 123 x 172 cm Musee Fabre, Montpellier David discovered the dramatically lit and forceful canvases of Caravaggio and his followers, and his full-length male nude and semi-nude studies such as Hector of 1778 and Patroclus of 1780 show how he had begun to use light and shadow to give weight and density to his figures.

Count Potocki ID de tableau:: 62871 Voir la galerie dans Suède |
Count Potocki 1781 Oil on canvas, 304 x 218 cm Muzeum Narodowe, Warsaw David received a lucrative commission for a grand portrait of a Polish nobleman, Count Stanislas Potocki. Although begun in Rome, the painting was actually completed a little later in Paris. Potocki came from one of the most celebrated Polish families, and had recently become very wealthy thanks to his wife's dowry. He was also a scholar, and translated and commented on the work of Winckelmann. Obviously his portrait had to be impressive and suggestive of his status. Therefore David depicted him on horseback, subduing a skittish horse with consummate ease. David turned to the example of the great Baroque portraitist Anthony van Dyck to create a work that was similar in scale and impact.
