Explanation:

Neoclassicism was a cultural movement born in Western Europe in the mid-eighteenth century, which had a large influence on art and culture throughout the West until the mid-nineteenth century. It was based on the ideals of the Enlightenment and a renewed interest in the culture of Classical Antiquity, advocating the principles of moderation, balance and idealism as a reaction against the decorative and dramatic excesses of Baroque. In the case of The Death of Marat, David portrayed one of the leaders of the French Revolution as a martyr, almost as a Christ. Using soft light, and a black background, David introduced us to Marat's death inside his bathtub. His pose resembles us the Michelangelo's Pietá, giving to him an aura of divinity and peace. His face did not transparence sadness or pain. With this, David tries to show that Marat was murdered, but died in peace.
