In general, "classical" refers to aesthetic attitudes and principles based on the culture, art and literature of ancient Greece and Rome, and characterized by emphasis on form, simplicity, proportion, and restrained emotion.
So much of neo-classical painting was official art, that is art sponsored by first the French Republic, and then by the Emperor Napoleon, that I have included a special section on Images of Napoleon.
Many of these paintings are not considered "great art," but they form an important addition to the history of art: art in service to political power.

There can be little doubt that Bouguereau was one of the most talented painters of his time, but it is a shame that he has fallen into obscurity with museum curators and those supposedly sophisticated about art who think that ugliness and lack of content imply depth and talent.

In this installation of paintings and sculptures from the collection of the Seattle Art Museum, familiar masters of Impressionism—Claude Monet, Berthe Morisot and Edgar Degas—are presented in the context of broader developments in 19th-century French art.
Approximately 15 works reveal parallel currents in academic art, realist landscape painting and Impressionism that fueled the rise of the modern avant-garde at the end of the century.
Their interest in spontaneity paved the way for the even more radical innovations of the Impressionists, whose call for a "painting of modern life" emphasized the casual and momentary in their compositions and techniques.
