b. Widely recognized and admired, attracting many students

Explanation:

Jacques-Louis David had a strong influence on French art and society because he was greatly appreciated, recognized and had a large number of students during his lifetime.

At the very early stage of his career, he had 50 of his own pupils and was commissioned by the government to do some of the paintings, which is evidence of his recognition. Among his students were some very big names, such as François-Joseph Navez and Ignace Brice from Brussels, Antoine-Jean Gros, who became honored by Napoleon, and Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, one of the more important artists in the Royal Academy and the era of neoclassicism.

He was considered the leading painter in France during his time, and his influence reached all over Western Europe. His strongest influence was in the academic Salon painting and Neoclassical style.

Jacques-Louis David was indeed involved with the French revolution - he was a very good friend of Maximilien Robespierre and vocal supporter of the revolution, but that is not the as big influence of him as the artist as his work and pupils are. The fact that he was a student of Francois Boucher tells more about the influence of Boucher than David.

Finally, David was involved with Neoclassical style and was not the founder of Baroque in France - that was Jean-Baptiste Lully.
