The Death of Marat | Jacques-Louis David | 1793

Jacques-Louis David – The Death of Marat (1793). This powerful neoclassical painting by Jacques-Louis David depicts the murdered French revolutionary leader Jean-Paul Marat. Found in his bathtub, where he worked due to a debilitating skin condition, Marat was assassinated by Charlotte Corday. David captures the moment with solemn reverence, portraying Marat as a martyr of the Revolution. The stark composition, subdued palette, and classical calm emphasize the nobility of his sacrifice. A wooden crate bearing the inscription "À Marat, David" serves as both dedication and gravestone, reinforcing the image of Marat as a political saint.
