'Academic' Style Painting.
Academic art is a style of painting and sculpture produced under the influence of European academies of art.
Specifically, academic art is the art and artists influenced by the standards of the French Académie des Beaux-Arts, which practiced under the movements of Neoclassicism and Romanticism, and the art that followed these two movements in the attempt to synthesize both of their styles.
The above digital painting is my own digital painting of 'Woman with a Hat' (1905) by Henri Matisse (France),
using 'Academic' style.
Henri Matisse when starting out as a painter most probably learnt this style from his tutors, who practised this form of painting.
This Matisse painting is held at present in the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, in a private collection.
