David
This work by Jacques-Louis David is said to be Patroclus.
L'influence de Rome. Patroclus is a fine example of the style of Jacques-Louis David. David studied art in Rome after winning the Prix de Rome of the Royal Académie in Paris in 1774. David would become a proponent of the Neoclassic style and supporter of the Revolution due to his clashes with the Académie. He had many students and greatly influenced academic salon painting within France.

I agree that David's merits are many.
