The "Posthumous Portrait of Leopoldine Hugo (1824-43)" is a poignant artwork created by Adèle Julie Hugo, the sister of Leopoldine Hugo and daughter of the renowned French writer Victor Hugo. This portrait is a tribute to Leopoldine, who tragically drowned at the age of 19 along with her husband Charles Vacquerie when their boat capsized on the Seine river near Villequier in 1843. The loss of Leopoldine had a profound impact on the Hugo family, particularly on Victor Hugo, who expressed his grief in many of his subsequent writings.

The portrait is notable for its emotional depth and the way it captures the essence of Leopoldine's character and beauty. It is a work that not only serves as a personal expression of sorrow and remembrance but also as a historical document that provides insight into the Hugo family's life and the impact of Leopoldine's death on their emotional landscape.

The exact date of the portrait's creation is not clearly documented, but it is believed to have been painted shortly after Leopoldine's death. The medium used for the portrait, as well as its current location, are details that would provide further context to the artwork but are not widely available in public records.
