Description

If you're familiar with the Neoclassical piece Oath of the Horatii by Jacques-Louis David(very famous painting and very famous painter), then you should get a kick out of this. If you're not...hopefully you will anyways.

This is a piece I did for one of my classes. The assignment was to recontextualize a famous work. In the original work, it's about two waring families. The one pictured is making an oath of revenge.

I've recontextualized their poses so that they'd make sense in today's world! :)
