- Le Prix De Rome & the Art of Winning was developed over time by the French government to aid and encourage the arts and the artists to ultimately be the pride of France. The world thronged to see the artworks in Paris at the yearly Salons and with many trials and tribulations it was a success, though for some it was not an easy task. This is a look at the process and what great works came of it.

Love the way this chap guides the viewer through the history of art. Really great films.Thanks a lot.
Another excellent video. Thanks!! It should be pointed out that the 19th-century academies and ateliers didn't teach their students to COPY nature, but rather to extrapolate from the model what could be used to turn nature into a work of art. They did NOT use sight-size, for instance. The Bargue figure drawings teach us how to translate the model into a design of S-curves, C-curves and straight lines of varying lengths, all of which have a clear beginning and end, which gives rhythm to the work.
Love these videos, keep them coming. I'm something of an aspiring artist myself and I very much appreciate this channel.
I love this stuff! Like you said, this presentation was much too short!
Wonderful incredible Art in this video also shows, Most or all of what is lacking in the art world today, "STANDARDS"
It is all about the shock now.
Thank you. Captivating, as always.
Undeniably the Grand Prix de Rome competition has proven to be a formidable machine for promoting excellence in visual arts, despite all the criticism that came from everywhere and from all sides.
Very informative.
Although I welcome a renewed appreciation of craftsmanship, it is also plain to see why the best known works of art all fall in the category of the ‘refugées’, like the Impressionists. Historically their individualism and freedom of expression touched the hearts of the public more than the near perfect execution of light and shadows on draperies. For the latter, all artists are bound to finally strike on one best practice of execution, that makes their seperate works hard to distinguish from each other.
I was wondering which museum it is at the 10mins mark? Looks worth it to visit. Great video and channel, only wish it was much longer, the 15 mins goes by too fast!
Enjoyed would be an understatement. I heard about ''Le prix e Rome'' and this description really gave me a clear idea of what it was. Must of been incredible to live those years.
Yeah, getting students to see shapes and values is a real uphill battle.
Has there been a proper book on the Salon? Maybe a catalogue? I know it'd be a daunting task but an important one I think.
Can someone name me a tutor painter from that time who gave money to the best students in order to motivate them to work harder and achive better ??
there was always a prominent lack of freedom spirit that I couldn't explain in those types of artists. although the stunning brush strokes and understanding of form I found myself reppealed from this painting.
This video explained the pressure those young painters suffered at a young age to survive the competition. It seems like you couldn't be a part of this system without giving up on a part of your soul.
Great artists generally did not win the prix de rome, such as Jacques Louis David and Cabanel. The winners of the Prix de Rome are now forgotten. Interesting
What a terrible system. Art cannot be controlled and constrained in that fashion.
We have found the bot.
