"Portrait of Madame de Grignan as Hebe with Jupiter at her side" is a notable work by the Dutch Golden Age painter Augustus Terwesten (1649–1711). This allegorical portrait, painted in oil on canvas, is a testament to Terwesten's skill in blending portraiture with mythological themes, a common practice among artists of the period to convey the virtues or qualities of the sitter through classical allegory.

In this painting, Madame de Grignan, whose identity is linked to the French aristocracy, is depicted as Hebe, the Greek goddess of youth and cupbearer to the gods. The choice of Hebe as her allegorical representation may imply the sitter's youthful beauty and her role in the social circles of her time, serving as a metaphorical 'cupbearer' in courtly functions. Beside her, the figure of Jupiter, the king of the gods, could be interpreted as a symbol of authority or divine favor, possibly reflecting the sitter's status or aspirations within the societal hierarchy.

Augustus Terwesten, primarily known for his historical and mythological scenes, showcases his adeptness at capturing the grandeur of such subjects through his detailed brushwork and use of rich, vibrant colors. The interaction between the figures of Hebe and Jupiter, along with the use of iconography and symbolism, creates a narrative that extends beyond the mere representation of the sitter, offering insights into the cultural and artistic milieu of the time.

The painting is a significant example of the cross-cultural influences in European art during the late 17th and early 18th centuries, as well as the continued fascination with classical antiquity that characterized much of the art produced during the Dutch Golden Age. It remains an important piece for the study of Augustus Terwesten's oeuvre and the broader context of portraiture in this era.
