Diana and Apollo Killing Niobe's Children

Own a stunning reproduction of Diana and Apollo Killing Niobe’s Children by Jacques-Louis David, painted in 1772—an awe-inspiring example of mythological tragedy brought to life through Neoclassical grandeur. This emotionally charged masterpiece depicts the moment the gods Diana and Apollo exact revenge on Niobe by slaughtering her children, a punishment for her arrogance against the goddess Leto. Commissioned during David’s time in Rome as part of his Prix de Rome scholarship, this epic scene blends dynamic movement, expressive figures, and dramatic lighting, all hallmarks of David’s early genius. The chaos of the massacre is contrasted by Niobe’s desperate gesture to protect her children, making this painting a timeless meditation on hubris and divine wrath. The original painting is housed in the Dallas Museum of Art, Texas, and measures an impressive 178.4 cm × 122.7 cm(approx. 70.2 in × 48.3 in).
