Description:

David O'Brien's "After the Revolution: Antoine-Jean Gros, Painting, and Propaganda Under Napoleon" is the first comprehensive study in over a century to examine Gros's career, from his beginnings in David's studio to his Napoleonic successes and tragic end, focusing on the artist's work within the context of Napoleon's regime and the institutional machinery that regulated the arts.
