It is a painting painted in 1793 by the French artist Jacques-Louis DavidJacques-Louis David "MARA"https://www.blogger.com/u/2/blog/post/edit/1170045952807426101/5520350167987004060?hl=fr of the French revolutionary leader who killed Jean-Paul Mara.
The painting is one of the most famous portraits of the French Revolution by the pioneering French artist David, as well as a Member of the Revolutionary Committee for Public Security. The painting shows the radical journalist lying dead in his bathroom on July 13, 1793, after he was killed by Charlotte Cordray.
The painting was painted in the months following Mara's death, and art historian T.J. Clark described it as the first modernist painting, "considering the way politics were taken as an art material."
Mara (born May 24, 1743 and assassinated on July 13, 1793) was one of the leaders of the Montanard, the radical faction that ascended into French politics during the reign of terror until the heat reaction. Charlotte Cordray was a Gironden from a small aristocratic family and a political promise to Mara, who blamed him for the September massacre.
Mara suffered from a skin disease that made him spend most of his time in his bathtub; Cordai stabbed Mara with a fatal stab wound, but she did not try to escape. She was subsequently tried and executed for murder.
The painting contains no signs of skin problems, and his skin appears clean and has no impurities.
David drew up other details of his visit to Mara's headquarters the day before the assassination: the green rug, the papers, and the pen.
David promised his peers at the National Convention that he would later portray their murdered friend as a "thinker for the good of the people."
Mara's death painting is a tribute to the elegant hero. Although Charlotte Cordray's name can be seen on the paper in Mara's left hand, it is invisible. A thorough search of this painting shows that Mara was taking his last breath, when Cordy and many other people were still nearby (Cordy did not try to escape). So, David had planned to record more than just horror. In this sense, the painting, entirely from its inception, is a systematic construction focused on the victim Mara and in the painting can see the knife that Cordai used to kill Mara, leaving her lying on the floor, next to his bathtub.

The letter is written (in French) and translates into Arabic, "It is enough to become well miserable so that (Lee) is entitled to your human being."
- This scene was filmed by more than one painter such as Paul Jacques Emmett Baudry, painted in 1860, and by Jean-Paul Mara.
