Art of The Times Neo-Classicism By John Canaday
London hosts three major exhibitions with the Tate Friedrich show, Tutankhamen treasures at the British Museum, and a sweeping The Age of Neo-Classicism display across five venues. The Tutankhamen run extends to December amid long lines. The Neo-Classicism exhibit, opening Sept 9 and closing Nov 19, highlights late eighteenth to mid‑nineteenth century European change, offering a richer view than standard art histories.

The Age of Neo Classicalism Exhibition Review
The exhibition places forgotten rivals beside masters like David and Ingres, with many works by minor reputations and unknowns. It argues German art deserves recognition within a massive 1037 page catalog and uses social themes to frame neo classical art as an age, not just style.
