    Elements and Principles: “Death of Marat”
    by: Jacques-Louis David
     1. Line- a combination of horizontal lines and vertical lines and the
     imaginary line that passes through Marat’s nose, down his right arm
     continuing in the fold of the cloth just under his elbow.
     2. Color- The scene is in fact carefully drawn in sober tones. The more
     brilliant colors are the white of the cloths, the green of the bathtub top
     and the yellow-brown of the side table. Colors are quite
     saturated adding a solid consistence to the surfaces
     3. Balance-The painting is almost divided into two halves: the lower one
     with Marat, the bathtub, the cloth, the pieces of paper, the inkwell etc.
     and the upper half acting as a counterbalance as it is just an neutral
     background.
     4. Space-The sense of space is reduced to a minimum as David is not
     preoccupied with the rendering of a perfect perspective of a room but
     he is rather interested in idealising Marat.
