Marius at Minturnae (French: Marius prisonnier ÃÂ Minturnes) is a 1786 neoclassical history painting by the French artist Jean Germain Drouais. It depicts a scene from the life of the Ancient Roman general Gaius Marius, when he was imprisoned at Minturnae
It was produced in Rome where Drouais was studying having won the Prix de Rome in 1784 with Christ and the Canaanite Woman. A pupil of Jacques-Louis David, Drouais was one of the most highly regarded prospects in French art before his death in 1788. Stylistically it draws on David's Oath of the Horatii. Today the painting is in the collection of the Louvre in Paris, having been acquired in 1816.
