As others have already mentioned, this painting depicts the moment in the traditional tale of Pheidippides when he announces the Greek victory at Marathon to the archon at Athens. Hereâs the scoop on Pheidippides; I leave the rest to the bot. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pheidippides
all have info about this artist, perhaps in addition to whatâs pointed to by the first URL. This is the first work by him used here.
