Did he paint two versions of the Death of Marat?
The inscriptions on the wood block and on the piece of paper differ! AxelBoldt 18:42, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- This site says he and his assistants did five versions of Napoleon Crossing the Alps, so two versions of the Death of Marat would seem perfectly likely. -- Jmabel | Talk 20:59, Apr 24, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Citations?
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 unsigned comment was added by my user talk page (talk • contribs) 2 Dec 2005.
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.
[edit] Good Article
In my opinion, this could easily pass as a Featured Article. —Rob (talk) 01:37, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] GA Re-Review and In-line citations
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. On behalf of the Good Articles Project, I want to thank you for all the time and effort that you have put into working on this article and improving the overall quality of the Wikipedia project. -- The Bethling(Talk) 23:00, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Reasons for GA Delisting
This article's GA status has been revoked because it fails criterion 2. b. of 'What is a Good Article?', which states;
-
- (b) the citation of its sources using inline citations is required (this criterion is disputed by editors on Physics and Mathematics pages who have proposed a subject-specific guideline on citation, as well as some other editors — see talk page).

[edit] How many wives did David actually have, and when?
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.
