It didn't take long for them to come to the "Death of Marat", then stopped and began to appreciate this classic work during the French Revolution.

This is a large oil painting about 1.67 meters high and about 1.30 meters wide. It was created in 1793 by the founder of the French neoclassical school and the famous painter Jacques Louis David.

The painting reflects the scene of the assassination of the Jacobin leader Paul Mara during the French Revolution. It is a very famous historical event.

"Death of Mara" deliberately created a space for the poor. In a small enclosed room, Mara fell into the bathtub, holding a pen in one hand and a letter stained with blood in the other.

The upper half of this oil painting is loose and messy. The blurred background may be a wall or just an ambiguous space, representing eternal nothingness.

The rough and plain wooden box in the lower half of the oil painting serves as a desk, but the brush strokes are very delicate, and the words and lines on it can be clearly seen, as if it is telling the virtues of Marathi.

This oil painting created a revolutionary icon by removing all actions, all fables, and weakening all traces of murder, and thus became a classic in the history of the French Revolution.

Standing still, Ye Tian carefully admired the famous oil painting on the wall for a while, and then began to explain to Betty and the others in a low voice.

"The oil painting in front of us is the famous "Death of Marat". It is a classic during the French Revolution. It is also a treasure of the Royal Museum of Fine Arts in Belgium.

Paul Mara, a famous French politician and revolutionary, was one of the leaders of the Jacobins during the French Revolution. His political stance was very radical and his approach to the enemy was extremely harsh.

After the establishment of the First French Republic, Mara began to fiercely oppose the rule of the Girondists in the "Friends of the People", which he created by himself, and later in the "French Republic".

It was his behavior that quickly caused him to kill himself. After the Jacobins took power in June 1793, Mara emphasized the establishment of a revolutionary dictatorship and the use of violence to establish freedom.

Mara practiced his radical revolutionary ideas with practical actions. The Jacobins under his leadership have set off **** killings in Paris and France, sending many enemies to the guillotine!

On July 13th, Mara was assassinated by a Girondist supporter, Charlotte Codé, disguised as a revolutionary in his apartment in Paris, shocking the whole of France.

The next day, France held a National Assembly. A representative spoke at the meeting, calling on the painter Jacques Louis David to take revenge for Mara, so that the enemy would tremble when he saw Mara being stabbed.

Jacques Louis David was the founder of the French neoclassical school and one of the most famous painters at the time. He was also a radical revolutionary and a member of the French National Assembly.

As a close friend of Mara, he accepted this task, and then rushed to the scene of the incident to understand the situation, painted a head of the dead Mara, and made a plaster mask as a reference for Mara’s image.

Next, he moved back to the studio the dagger left by the female assassin and the bathtub where Mala died, as a basis for creation, and quickly created a sketch of the scene of Mala's assassination.

After that, he spent about three months, with profound revolutionary friendship, creating this eternal and immortal painting, and he wrote the inscription in his own hand: ‘For the Friend of the People-Mara’

When creating this painting, Jacques Louis David used a sturdy and powerful pen to depict the scene of a revolutionary leader being assassinated and killed with realistic brushwork. The picture is bleak and full of tragedy.

The composition of this painting is bright, simple and solemn, omitting all details that are irrelevant to the overall situation. Half of the picture is composed of a dark background that is so heavy that people can hardly breathe.

The most striking thing on the picture is the corpse color of the horse-drawn skin, the yellow of the wooden box, the green of the blanket, the white of the sheets and the paper, which are all displayed to the maximum, forming a strong contrast.

Mara leaned in the bathtub, one hand hanging weakly outside, and the other hand holding the letter paper, with his head tilted back and his expression calm, as if he closed his eyes and took a nap, blood was flowing from his chest.

What this famous oil painting represents is a touching and famous historical moment, reflecting a real, passion and ideal, bloodshed and death era of the great revolution.

When admiring this famous painting filled with sadness and desolation, everyone can feel a heavy pressure on their faces, and at the same time can feel a shocking power.

In the painter's pen, Mara is portrayed as a saint, a dead but alive hero who is beautified by kindness, integrity and selfless patriotism.

Jacques Louis David used the paintbrush in his hand to paint such a major historical event as Mara’s assassination into a dramatic and shocking immortal masterpiece.

Betty said softly, her expression quite solemn, her eyes fixed on the immortal masterpiece ahead.

Ye Tian nodded lightly, and then continued to explain the famous painting in front of him.
