"The Trojan Wars" is a series of six large paintings by the 18th-century Irish painter James Barry that depict various scenes from the Trojan War, a mythological conflict between the city of Troy and the invading Greek forces. The series is considered one of Barry's most significant works, showcasing his interest in classical antiquity and his ambition to create grand historical narratives through his art.

James Barry (1741–1806) was a notable artist of the period, known for his expressive style and the intellectual depth of his work. He was a member of the Royal Academy and held strong views on the role of art in society, often clashing with the establishment over his beliefs. Barry's "The Trojan Wars" reflects his engagement with themes of heroism, human suffering, and the moral aspects of historical events.

The paintings in the series are characterized by their dramatic composition, vigorous use of color, and the incorporation of allegorical elements. Barry's work on "The Trojan Wars" was part of his broader effort to elevate history painting, which he considered the highest genre of art. The series was intended to not only depict the epic narrative but also to inspire contemplation on the nature of war, the human condition, and the cycles of history.

While "The Trojan Wars" is recognized for its artistic and historical significance, it has not received the same level of attention as some of Barry's other works, such as his murals at the Royal Society of Arts. Nevertheless, the series remains an important part of Barry's oeuvre and a testament to his skills as a history painter and storyteller.

The paintings are held in various collections and have been exhibited in different locations over time. They continue to be studied by art historians and scholars interested in the neoclassical period and the cultural output of the late 18th century.
