"Une Soiree Chez La Paiva" is a painting by the French artist Adolphe Monticelli (1824–1886), whose work is known for its rich color and heavily applied paint. Monticelli was a precursor to the Impressionist movement and his work influenced the later styles of artists such as Vincent van Gogh. The painting's title translates to "An Evening at La Paiva's" and it depicts a scene within the salon of the famous 19th-century courtesan and socialite Esther Lachmann, known as La Paiva.

La Paiva was a prominent figure in Parisian high society during the Second Empire, and her salon was a gathering place for artists, writers, and intellectuals. Monticelli's painting captures the opulence and the vibrant social atmosphere of such an evening. The work is characterized by its vivid color palette and dynamic brushwork, which create a sense of movement and liveliness within the depicted scene.

The exact date of creation for "Une Soiree Chez La Paiva" is not well-documented, but it is believed to have been painted during the latter part of Monticelli's career, which was marked by a focus on fantasy and the use of thick impasto. The painting is significant as it provides a visual representation of the cultural milieu of the time and reflects Monticelli's unique style, which was both a culmination of Romantic sensibilities and a harbinger of Impressionist techniques.

As with many of Monticelli's works, "Une Soiree Chez La Paiva" is appreciated for its textural qualities and the artist's experimental approach to color and form. The painting is held in private collections or museums, and it continues to be studied for its historical context and contribution to the development of modern art.
