David's portrait of Marat

In the French Revolution's fervor, Jacques Louis David rose to prominence as a painter aligned with the principles of Classicism, greatly influenced by Nicolas Poussin. Amidst the Reign of Terror, Jean-Paul Marat, a prominent politician and journalist, met his demise at the hands of a political adversary. David was entrusted with the responsibility of creating a portrait of this de facto martyr of the French Revolution, a task that would ultimately set him in conflict with his nation.
