Woman from the Villa Pamphili 1775 - 1780

"Woman from the Villa Pamphili" is a drawing by Jacques-Louis David, created between 1775 and 1780. The work portrays a woman in a flowing gown, standing with her arm outstretched. The figure is rendered with a classical style, emphasizing the simplicity of lines and forms, characteristic of David's early work. This drawing exemplifies the Neoclassical style that was popular during the late 18th century and influenced David’s later masterpieces like "Oath of the Horatii."
