Both paintings depict young women taking a bath and being helped by their servants. Difference in baroque or neo-classical styles of painting had a great impact on Gerome and Gentileshi's techniques in using light, palette of color and mood expressiveness on the same topic. Both Gerome and Gentileschi placed their main nudes in the middle ground as well as some of their servants.

In the painting by Jacques Louis David, The Emperor Napoleon in his study at the Tuileries, 1812 is a formal looking painting with dark colors and the painting is in focus unlike the Impressionism painting technique. The Neoclassicism painting technique is an easier painting to understand and has a classier technique than the other art styles. Impressionism art was established in the late 1800’s.

Also, although the girl’s skin is not the same saturation of white as the other objects are, her skin is very pale, which makes it seem like a repeating color. The repeating color seems to make the white tones flow together in a smooth rhythm. Another repeated color in this painting is brown, different saturations which are used a lot in the background of the painting.

The artist used reversed copies of the prints by Cr6py and showed remarkable dexterity in cutting out very fine decoration. Allegorical figures derived from another series of French prints were pasted on either side of the door frames and in the central niche (Figures 25-27). Symbolizing seven months, these figures represent various gods and goddesses with their symbols and signs of the zodiac in a fanciful architectural frame. From left to right, starting with the left-hand door, we see Vulcan as September and Minerva as October.
