"L'Addolorata" is a notable painting by the French artist Antoine Auguste Ernest Hébert (1817–1908), who was known for his works that often reflected the Italian influence on his style, particularly from his time spent in Rome. The title of the painting, "L'Addolorata," translates from Italian to "The Sorrowful Woman" in English, and it depicts a figure of a grieving woman, which is a common representation of the Virgin Mary in her sorrow after the Crucifixion of Jesus, known as "Our Lady of Sorrows" in Christian iconography.

Hébert, who was a student of the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris and a winner of the prestigious Prix de Rome, was deeply inspired by the Italian Renaissance and the classical tradition. His works are characterized by their emotional depth, refined elegance, and often religious or mythological subject matter. "L'Addolorata" is a testament to Hébert's skill in capturing the essence of human emotion, particularly the profound sense of loss and mourning.

The painting is executed with a delicate touch and a palette that emphasizes the somber mood of the subject. The exact date of the painting's creation is not well-documented, but Hébert's active period and the stylistic elements of the work suggest it was likely produced in the mid-19th century during one of his sojourns in Italy.

"L'Addolorata" is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its cultural and religious implications. The representation of Mary's sorrow has been a powerful theme in Christian art, and Hébert's interpretation contributes to this rich tradition. The painting is an example of the artist's ability to synthesize his French artistic background with the Italian influences that he embraced throughout his career.

Today, "L'Addolorata" is appreciated for its historical value and its place within the oeuvre of Hébert, who is remembered as one of the notable French painters of the 19th century with a lasting influence on the academic art tradition. The painting is part of a larger body of work that showcases Hébert's talent and his contribution to the period's artistic movements, reflecting the sensibilities of the Romantic and later academic art that dominated the era.
