1798
Declines to accompany Bonaparte to Egypt
Bonaparte asked David to accompany him to Egypt; David refused, seemingly unwilling to give up the comfort, safety and peace of mind he had won over the years, and Dominique Vivant Denon went instead.
1800
“The Sabine Women” shown with a mirror and a pamphlet
The painting was shown at the Palais du Luxembourg and then at the Salon in the Louvre; David had a large mirror hung before it so that visitors saw themselves against the battle, and each visitor was handed a pamphlet explaining his intention. The showing became a political event.
7 February 1800
Declines the post of “painter of the government”
Bonaparte named David “painter of the government” by special decree, but the artist, defending his independence, declined the post.
