Jacques-Louis David, The Death of Marat
[Voiceover] We're in Brussels looking at one of Jacques-Louis David's Revolutionary canvases.발음듣기
His signature is on documents created for the arrest and execution of members of the aristocracy, of people who were against the Revolution.발음듣기
And he was essentially the Minister of Propaganda, spreading the ideals of the Revolution through images.발음듣기
The Revolutionary government asked him to produce a series of three images that would heroicize new martyrs.발음듣기
We have the beginnings of the end of the world of the monarchy, of the the "ancien r?gime", of an absolutist ruler, and the beginnings of a new republic.발음듣기
[Voiceover] The French Revolution had been inspired, at least in part, by the American Revolution just a few years earlier.발음듣기
But France would oscillate between republican and royalist governments over the next century.발음듣기
[Voiceover] A royalist named Charlotte Corday, a woman who believed in the monarchy of absolutist rule, went to see Marat, the leader of the Revolution.발음듣기
[Voiceover] You can see the knife which she used to stab him lying on the bottom left corner of the canvas.발음듣기
He was a publisher, so his role in the Revolution was important, because he helped to disseminate revolutionary ideas and to rally the people.발음듣기
[Voiceover] There is this extreme contrast between her duplicity and his nobility. [Voiceover] He's ideally beautiful.발음듣기
We know that he was disfigured by the skin disease that caused him to spend many hours of each day in the bath.발음듣기
[Voiceover] And his pose reminds us of the Piet?, of the image of Christ being mourned having just been taken down from the cross.발음듣기
So the idea that a martyr to the Revolution is replacing the central Christian martyr is vividly rendered.발음듣기
This whole replacing of the old world with a new Revolutionary order for a new French republic.발음듣기
Instead of the older, traditional measurements for example, this is when we first have the more rational metric system being introduced.발음듣기
[Voiceover] This is the Enlightenment, this is a time of rational thinking, of believing in empirical observation over the superstitions and traditions of the church.발음듣기
This really interesting contrast between the specificity of the foreground, especially the crate on which he's written his name, and written "? Marat", "To Marat".발음듣기
Against the indeterminate, open brushwork of the background that almost doesn't look finished.발음듣기
[Voiceover] But as we look around at other paintings in this museum, what I see in the upper part of a painting are angels.발음듣기
So instead what we have is a lighter field in the upper right corner balancing Marat's body in the lower left corner. [Voiceover] And what a body.발음듣기
We can see that neoclassical interest in studying the anatomy, painting it very carefully, paying a lot of attention to contours, modelling in the effects of light and dark.발음듣기
In direct contrast to the luxurious interiors of Rococo paintings of the lifestyle of the aristocracy, which was the subject of Rococo paintings.발음듣기
This is a man, David wants to tell us, lived according to the republican ideals of the Revolution.발음듣기
And so a lot of art historians look at David's career and say, "Where were his actual principles?" [Voiceover] Where were his loyalties?발음듣기
