NAPOLEON CROSSING the APLS (J.DAVID)
THE PAINTING THAT SHOWED A STRONGLY IDEALIZED VIEW OF
THE REAL CROSSING THAT NAPOLEON AND HIS ARMY MADE ACROSS THE APLS
THROUGH THE GREAT ST. BERNARD PASS IN MAY 1800.
OATH OF THE HORATII (J.DAVID)
IT WAS A LARGE PAINTING THAT DEPICTS A SCENE FROM A ROMAN
LEGEND ABOUT THE DISPUTE BETWEEN ROME AND ALBA LONGA. THE THREE
BROTHERS, ALL OF WHOM APPEAR WILLING TO SACRIFICE THEIR
LIVES FOR THE GOOD OF ROME, ARE SHOWN SALUTING THEIR FATHER WHO
HOLDS THEIR SWORDS OUT OF THEM\
