Jacques Louis David


This work is The Death of Camilla by artist Jacques Louis David.  Implied lines are used here by the line created by the direction the man is looking and pointing. (shown by arrow) I feel that the line orientation in composition is both horizontal and vertical as well as Diagonal and   The horizontal and vertical is the positioning of the men.  The diagonal and curvilinear are in the draping of the clothing worn by the men.
