"The Three Horatii Brothers" (1785) is a seminal neoclassical painting by the French artist Jacques-Louis David, which is also known by its French title, "Les Trois Horaces." The painting is renowned for its embodiment of the neoclassical aesthetic and its political symbolism during the period leading up to the French Revolution. It depicts the moment from the Roman legend as recounted by Livy, where the three brothers from the Horatii family are saluting their father as they prepare to fight against the three Curiatii brothers from Alba Longa, thereby determining the outcome of a war between their respective cities.

David's work is celebrated for its rigorous linearity, clear composition, and the portrayal of stoic virtue and patriotic sacrifice. The painting's emphasis on moral integrity, civic duty, and stoicism reflects the Enlightenment values of the time and prefigures the rising sentiment for political change in France. "The Three Horatii Brothers" is a large oil on canvas, measuring 330 cm × 425 cm (130 in × 167 in), and is housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris.

The painting was commissioned by the French government and was first exhibited at the Paris Salon of 1785, where it received widespread acclaim. David's meticulous attention to the details of classical dress and architecture, as well as his use of strong chiaroscuro and a subdued palette, contribute to the dramatic effect and the narrative tension of the scene. The work has been interpreted as an allegory of loyalty to the state over personal interests, and it played a significant role in shaping the artistic direction of the period and influencing the development of French revolutionary art.

"The Three Horatii Brothers" remains a key example of David's artistry and of the neoclassical movement. Its iconic status is attributed to its powerful representation of themes that resonated with contemporary audiences and its lasting influence on the visual culture of the era. The painting continues to be studied for its historical context, artistic technique, and ideological implications, making it a cornerstone of art history and a testament to the enduring legacy of Jacques-Louis David.
