User:JDooley added major biographical content to this article with no citations. I left a note on his/her talk page a week ago asking for sources; no response yet. -- Jmabel | Talk 03:40, Jun 19, 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for editing down those citations. I know they were needed, but I didnt have time to format them properly.

David dit paint one version of the Death of Marat. Two other versions were painted at least, one by Gioacchino Serangeli, an italian pupil of David, the other by Eustache Hyacinthe Langlois, or maybe François Gérarrd, french pupils of David at the time (1793). These copies are visible at the Museum of the castle of Versailles, and the Museum of Fine Arts of Dijon —The preceding

The Death of Marat was an important painting they used for propaganda and as a symbol of the french revolution, it was reproduced many times to be put in different places, such as the National Assembly and different museums.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by my user talk page ( talk • contribs) 28 Apr 2006.

Members of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles are in the process of doing a re-review of current Good Article listings to ensure compliance with the standards of the Good Article Criteria. (Discussion of the changes and re-review can be found here). A significant change to the GA criteria is the mandatory use of some sort of in-line citation (In accordance to WP:CITE) to be used in order for an article to pass the verification and reference criteria. Currently this article does not include in-line citations. It is recommended that the article's editors take a look at the inclusion of in-line citations as well as how the article stacks up against the rest of the Good Article criteria. GA reviewers will give you at least a week's time from the date of this notice to work on the in-line citations before doing a full re-review and deciding if the article still merits being considered a Good Article or would need to be de-listed. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us on the Good Article project talk page or you may contact me personally.

Here after detailed rerences for any reader seriously interested by this painter :
It seems like the language could be much clearer throughout regarding David's wives. The paragraph describing The Intervention of the Sabine Women is a prime example: it mentions his wife, and then his ex-wife, and then he remarried "her". Names, or at least "1st wife" and "2nd wife", would be tremendously helpful, in my opinion, for the clarity of this part of the biography.

The fact is that David, in the process of the Revolution, divorced from his wife, and then remarried her later on, this for political reasons. Thus, David got married twice, but only got one wife. A Richard Burton-Liz Taylor preview if you like... 28 augustus 2007 JLD —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.65.141.203 ( talk) 22:11, August 29, 2007 (UTC)
clarification is definatly nessesary in the article. whomever wrote the above should add that to the text.

First, I would propose the discussion about the painting "The Oath of the Tennis Court" be moved under the subheading of the French Revolution. David started this painting in 1791, well after the Revolution was underway.
As regards "The Oath of the Tennis Court," I would like to further discuss the political circumstances surrounding this painting. The current discussion mentions that the painting was commissioned by the Society of Friends of the Revolution. However, it does not discuss the pro-Revolutionary role that the revolutionaries hoped this painting would take.
Moreover, the current discussion of the painting does not address that the painting was never completed. I would like to further discuss the political circumstances that inhibited the completion of this painting. i.e., the message of the painting became too controversial as the Revolution progressed.
I would like to use some writings of Thomas Crow from "Patriotism and Virtue: From David to the Young Ingres."
Any thoughts or suggestions?

Is he any relation to Jacques Louis Jules David (1829-1886)? Drutt ( talk) 09:09, 29 October 2009 (UTC)
This article states "The painting depicts Romulus's wife Hersilia — the daughter of Titus Tatius, leader of the Sabines ..." However, according to the page Titus Tatius "He had one daughter Tatia, who married Numa Pompilius (Romulus's successor) ..."
So which is it (or did one woman have two names and two husbands)? Maybe myths are allowed inconsistency but Wikipedia articles should not be contradictory. If the story is known to have several versions then an explanatory note appears warranted.
Incomplete lists of other pages stating that Tatia was the daughter of Titus Tatius and maried Romulus's successor:
