'La mort de Marat' was painted by Jean-Jacques Hauer shortly after Marat's assassination. This portrait looks at Charlotte Corday in a sympathetic light as a brave revolutionary on a mission. In this portrayal of Corday, she has blond hair, whereas in reality, Corday was a brunette. The reason for this choice was allegedly for Hauer’s safety, as light hair symbolized the vilified aristocracy. (Photo Credit: Jean-Jacques Hauer, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons)
