And "The coronation of Napoleon" painting by Jacques-Louis David from 1807 is definitively one of my faves.
Studied that in school, saw many beautiful prints in books, but seeing this in person topped it all. In my opinion, this is one of the best things the Louvre has...
The sheer size and detail of this painting is to die for...
Another masterpiece by David: Madame Recamier... Look at that dress, that furniture...
And now, the Madame and moi!!!
