"Lesbia" is a notable painting by the 19th-century French artist Auguste Jules Bouvier, a member of the New Watercolour Society (N.W.S.). Bouvier, born in 1827 and active until his death in 1881, was renowned for his detailed and evocative works, often focusing on historical and literary themes. "Lesbia" is one such work that exemplifies his skill in capturing the essence of his subjects through meticulous attention to detail and a profound understanding of human emotion.

The painting draws inspiration from the classical figure of Lesbia, a pseudonym used by the Roman poet Catullus in his passionate and often tumultuous love poems. Lesbia is widely believed to represent Clodia Metelli, a woman of high social standing in ancient Rome, known for her beauty and complex personal life. Bouvier's interpretation of Lesbia is a visual homage to the muse who has captivated literary and artistic imaginations for centuries.

In "Lesbia," Bouvier employs a rich palette and delicate brushwork to bring the character to life. The painting is characterized by its intricate detailing, particularly in the rendering of textures and fabrics, which was a hallmark of Bouvier's style. The composition and use of light in the painting highlight Lesbia's enigmatic expression, inviting viewers to delve into the layers of her persona as depicted by Catullus.

Bouvier's membership in the New Watercolour Society is reflected in his adept use of the medium, which allows for a luminous quality in the painting. This work not only showcases Bouvier's technical prowess but also his ability to convey deep emotional resonance, making "Lesbia" a significant piece in his oeuvre and a valuable contribution to 19th-century art.
