"Marie Antoinette in the Temple" is an oil painting by the Irish Victorian artist Alfred Elmore, completed in 1859. The artwork captures a poignant moment in the life of Marie Antoinette, the last queen of France before the French Revolution, during her imprisonment in the Temple, an austere medieval fortress in Paris used as a prison by the revolutionaries.

The painting is a historical genre work, a category that Elmore frequently explored, which depicts scenes from history with an emphasis on dramatic and emotional moments. In this work, Elmore portrays Marie Antoinette in a state of somber reflection, isolated and awaiting her fate after the fall of the monarchy. The scene is likely intended to evoke sympathy for the queen, who is shown as a tragic figure, a theme that was popular in the 19th-century artistic depictions of historical events.

Alfred Elmore's attention to detail and his ability to convey the emotional gravity of the scene are evident in the painting's composition and the use of light and shadow. The artwork reflects the Victorian fascination with the French Revolution and its key figures, as well as the period's broader interest in the moral and psychological dimensions of historical narratives.

"Marie Antoinette in the Temple" is an example of Elmore's skill in historical painting and contributes to the understanding of how 19th-century British artists interpreted and represented European history. The painting is part of a larger body of work by Elmore that engages with the themes of history, tragedy, and the human experience, and it stands as a testament to the enduring cultural fascination with Marie Antoinette's life and legacy.
