S1 E1 The Passing Show

Feb 12, 1986

From the last decadent days of the old monarchy through the Revolution and the rise and fall of Napoleon, the arts in France are dominated by one man: the mysterious figure of Jacques-Louis David. He is the greatest painter of his day, an ardent revolutionary – and a leading figure in Robespierre's secret police.
