Thermopylae is pretty striking. More than escape from hell, at least to me. One, it is in a style that I cannot stand. And two, the story captured in it is intense. I keep thinking if any of these would end up in my collection or house like you say, but no, none of them actually.
Some paintings and artworks in general, can be interesting, even fantastic, but that doesn't mean you want to hang them in your living room 😉
