We are talking about the famous painting titled "Oath of the Horatii," painted by Jaques-Loui David in 1785. French King Louis XVI ordered the paint to promote loyalty to the state, but the French people had another interpretation. The work was painted in Rome, Italy, on oil canvass.

In the painting, you can see three brothers saluting their father, who is holding three spades as if the father is giving the spades and the sons would go to war.  Behind the father, there are three women and one child seated, grieving for the departure of the men.
