When the Jacobins came to power in revolutionary France, they decided to dechristianize many aspects of French life by implementing a new calendar based on the chronology of the revolution. The Jacobins who were led by Robespierre also implemented the cult of the supreme being as an attempt to further dechristianize France. They also initaited the so called Reign of Terror with mass executions of aristocrats and others considered to be enemies of the revolution.

Jean-Paul Marat was killed by Charlotte Corday in his bathtub.
Jean Paul Marat was a leader of the French Revolution. He was killed by Charlotte Corday of Caen, France in his bath tub. He continued to issue letters, pamphlets, and speeches to the citizens of France for the Revolution, despite the troubles it had in establishing a government, and eventually the Emperor Napoleon. Marat's socialist ideals were corrupted. Even with the Revolutionary Tribunals and use of the guillotine the redistribution of wealth could not occur, leaving the poor facing inflation, war, and few options.
The dead man in the painting, Jean-Paul Marat, was a comrade of the artist, Jacques-Louis David, during the French Revolution. Marat was a journalist and a radical who was known for rallying people for the revolt, and was ultimately murdered by Charlotte Corday, (mentioned in the note Marat is holding in the painting). Corday felt that by killing Marat, thousands of deaths in the name of the revolution could be avoided. The purpose could be interpreted as a memorial to the artist's friend as well as a political statement for the horrendous occurrences brought about from the French Revolution.
