The Emperor Napoleon in His Study at the Tuileries, 1812
Samuel H. Kress Collection
1961.9.15

The colors are beautiful and we can make out everything in this painting. With the fall of Napoleon, David went into exile in Brussels, and his work weakened as the possibility of exerting a moral and social influence receded. (Until recently critics generally scorned his late history paintings, but their sensuous qualities are now winning them a more appreciative audience.) He continued to be an outstanding portraitist, but he never surpassed such earlier achievements as the great Napoleon Crossing the Alps (Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna, 1800, one of four versions) or the cooly erotic Madame Récamier (Louvre, 1800).
His work had a resounding influence on the development of French -- and indeed European -- painting, and his many pupils included Gérard, Gros, and Ingres. (Gerten-Jackson & Harden, 2002)
