The Anger of Achilles is an oil-on-canvas painting of 1819 by the French artist Jacques-Louis David. One of the last of David's history paintings, it shows the moment in Greek myth when Agamemnon reveals to Achilles that he has not actually brought his daughter Iphigenia to him as a bride, but rather intends to sacrifice her in order to appease the goddess Artemis. Achilles begins to draw his sword in anger upon hearing this, while Agamemnon's wife, Clytemnestra, looks on in grief and sadness with her hand on her daughter's shoulder.

Oy, these comments... oO
So, I have a passing familiarity with David, based on the French Revolution, but didn't realise until just now what a crazy opportunist he was upon... well, leap-frogging leaders and interests in order to protect his own hide, over the years!
Not sure of the raw numbers and such, but I'd guess that plenty of other people in the arts tried to play that game, but crashed & burned, so to speak. :S
