At the request of King Louis XV who wanted to put an equestrian statue of him, this square was built, which once had the statue of this king but later, during the French Revolution, was destroyed.

The guillotine was installed and remained there for a little over a year. This was where Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette were executed. An estimated 1,119 people were publicly beheaded in the square during the French Revolution, turning it into a bloody scene.

¿Es el NEOCLASICISMO lo mismo que el Renacimiento? 🤷‍♀️

# data[].attributes.body
A young woman, probably an aristocrat, appears who dresses in French fashion and seductively looks at the viewer accompanied by a man dressed as a "majo" who shades the sun with a green umbrella. On the woman's lap a small black dog with a red bow seems to be asleep. In the background a somewhat vaporous landscape in its colors and a side wall. It is not deduced if the young man only accompanies her or there is some flirtation between both.

Although in appearance neoclassical art conveys a certain coldness, in reality it was intended to be a truly revolutionary art.

The purpose of neoclassicism was the education and moralization of society with a view to the construction of the modern project. The artists believed that through their works they were helping to spread the necessary values ​​to build a rational, moral, cultured and progressive society that would overcome ignorance, which they saw as the mother of intolerance and dogmatism.

Among the artists there was a conviction to create an aesthetic that would give a new meaning to the passage from tradition to modernity, under a scale of values ​​that were considered rational and, to that extent, universal. Among them were:

> the idea of ​​homeland.
> heroism.
> the spirit of sacrifice, rigor and self-control.
> freedom.

interest in balance, proportion and symmetry resurfaced, values ​​typical of Greek art of the classical period. In this way, neoclassical artists rejected the sensationalism, spectacularity and decorative excess of baroque and rococo art.

Neoclassical art especially addressed themes such as Greco-Latin history, the history of republicanism and the French Revolution, and Roman mythology (as an allegory of virtue).

> The appearance of the Enlightenment, a philosophical movement that defended reason, knowledge and secularization as the purpose and means to repeal dogmatism and promote progress.

> The discovery of the ruins of Herculaneum (1738) and Pompeii (1748), which again aroused interest in studying Greco-Latin culture.

> The industrial revolution that was modifying the modes of production and social organization, and the French revolution, which proclaimed equality, freedom and fraternity.

In this context, neoclassicism was born, a confessional artistic movement that reacted against the previous artistic tradition (Roccoco) proclaiming an aesthetic and philosophical "revolution".
