He was a revolutionary painter both artistically and politically.
David's thought-provoking style of history painting marked a changed from the looseness of the Rococo style. David said he wanted to change the art world by reintroducing the eternal concepts that belonged to the Classical School. David Paintings such as Madame Juliette Recamier show David's admiration for the classical Italian masters especially Raphael whom he desired greatly to emulate.
David was also an active supporter of the French Revolution and a comrade of Robespierre.

It was during this time when David developed his Empire Style known for his use of warm Venetian colors.
