Sully's portraits of Jean and Mary Sicard David brilliantly showcase neoclassical elegance, contrasting military drama with pastoral serenity. What do these striking textures and expressive colors reveal about their personalities and status in society?

This is my interpretation of neoclassicism, or the anatomy thereof. With examples. All other models are wrong! See also my pastiche-o-meter. Been listening to a lot of neoclassical music lately. Too much, apparently. #infographic #neoclassicism #neoclassical #classicalmusic #renaissance #romanticism #baroque #stravinsky #ValentinSylvestrov #poulenc #DobrinkaTabakova @classicalmusic @music @composers

"In a work obviously targeted, like Shaikh’s, at graduate students in economics, the authors approach their objective via a critique of orthodox growth theory and two types of growth models. One, the post-Keynesian Harrod-Domar model, is described as a knife-edge model, as any deviation from a balanced growth path sets off an inexorable process of either inflationary expansion (if investment is above the ‘warranted rate’) or deflationary contraction (if below) – unless states intervene to stabilize the system. The ‘neoclassical’ Solow model, constructed in response to the unrealistic instability of the post-Keynesian model, depended on the ludicrously unrealistic assumptions of perfect competition. It was later combined with the problematic concept of ‘total factor productivity’, and suffered from the notorious ‘aggregation problem’ of measuring the total stock of capital.

After concisely explaining the deficiencies of both models, the authors turn to classical political economy, including Marx, for an alternative. In summary, they counterpose Shaikh’s concept of ‘real competition’ to both neoclassical perfect competition theory and theories of monopoly capital. They explain how aggregation problems can be overcome using a labour theory of value, with estimates of socially-necessary labor-time for the elements of constant capital."

"A Study of a Woman from Nature," Marie-Denise Villers, 1802.

Villers (1774-1821) was a French Neoclassical portraitist, and came from a very artistic family; two sisters and a cousin all became noted portraitists.

Not much of her life is known; she is actually in the process of being rediscovered. Aggravatingly, it seems that quite a few of her works have been attributed to other artists...MALE ones, of course. Sigh.

(Pardon me. I hate being one of those men who trumpet their "feminism" from the rooftops because I am very suspicious of them, often for good reason (coughNeilGaimancough).)

Back to the painting....it's Neoclassicism, to be sure, but I think I see Romantic influences (the stormy sky, the mountains in the distance), and I love her style. The lace veil flopping over her face while she casually ties her slipper...she's obviously in front of someone she trusts. I can only hope that trust is not betrayed.

From the Louvre, Paris.

Marvel at "La Déesse," a stunning engraving celebrating neoclassical elegance! The serene figure of Diana amidst lush foliage captivates, while the cherub adds charm. What emotions does this work evoke in you?

All the illustrations are made with Krita (some are ugly, I admit, but I don't like some styles and the difficulty is high)

Sweet Melancholy, 1756. Joseph-Marie Vien (French, 1716–1809).

The Cleveland Museum of Art.

Vien plays an important part in the the history of French art. In the mid 1740s, his encounter with Roman art newly unearthed from Herculaneum prompted him to move away from the decorative frivolity of Boucher to a more severe style - the beginning of a shift from rococo to neoclassicism. David was apprenticed to him and clearly influenced by this shift.

The head in hand pose for melancholy antedates this canvas by hundreds of years, but I like the linear elegance with which it is deployed by the artist. Other touches appeal to me too, such as the little still life on the table and the interwoven fabric and pearls of the headband.
