"Joseph Bara (1779-93) as a Young Man" is a painting by the French artist Jean Joseph Weerts, created in the late 19th century. The artwork commemorates the young Joseph Bara, a drummer boy in the French Revolutionary army who became a celebrated figure and martyr of the French Revolution. According to the legend, Bara refused to surrender to the Vendéan royalist insurgents and was killed at the age of 14, allegedly proclaiming "Long live the Republic!" with his last breath.

Weerts's painting captures the idealized image of Bara, presenting him as a symbol of youthful patriotism and sacrifice. The work is part of a broader cultural and artistic movement that sought to enshrine the values and heroes of the Republic, reinforcing the revolutionary narrative through visual arts.

The painting is significant for its historical and cultural context, reflecting the political climate of the time and the use of art as a means of propaganda. It serves as an example of how artists contributed to the construction of national myths and the glorification of individuals who were considered to embody the spirit of the revolution.
