"David civilly sanctifies, without divinizing him, a man and lays the foundation for a new kind of faith: secular, founded on the principles of reason and solidarity among people." "The light and shadow recall Caravaggio’s dramatic ability in rendering sacred contexts: clearly David’s attempt to present the assassinated as a secular icon and martyr of the Revolution and Enlightenment values."
