"The Spy" (1880) is a painting by Alphonse Marie de Neuville, a French academic painter known for his depictions of military subjects and his role in the development of the patriotic genre of war art in the 19th century. This work is one of de Neuville's many pieces that illustrate scenes from various conflicts, in this case likely reflecting the Franco-Prussian War (1870–1871), during which the artist served as an army correspondent.

The painting portrays the tension-filled moment of the discovery of a spy, capturing the drama and the high stakes of espionage during wartime. De Neuville's mastery in depicting military uniforms, weaponry, and the nuanced expressions of his figures is evident in this work. The artist's attention to detail and his ability to convey the psychological intensity of the moment contribute to the painting's impact.

"The Spy" is emblematic of de Neuville's artistic legacy, contributing to the visual culture of French military history and the collective memory of the Franco-Prussian War. The painting is a fine example of the genre scenes that were popular during the artist's time, offering viewers a glimpse into the perilous world of wartime intelligence and the often-unseen aspects of conflict.

As a historical artifact, "The Spy" serves not only as a piece of art but also as a document of the period's social attitudes and the role of espionage in war. Alphonse Marie de Neuville's work remains significant for both art historians and military history enthusiasts, providing insight into the era's artistic trends and the narrative of war as perceived through the lens of French society in the late 19th century.
