"Madame Récamier" (1802) is a celebrated portrait by the French Neoclassical painter Baron François Gérard. This artwork immortalizes Juliette Récamier, a prominent Parisian socialite known for her beauty and her influential salon. The painting is a quintessential example of early 19th-century French portraiture, showcasing Gérard's mastery in capturing the elegance and grace of his subject.

In the portrait, Madame Récamier is depicted reclining on a Directoire style sofa in a sparsely decorated room, which emphasizes her figure and the fine details of her white empire-line dress. The simplicity of the setting and the serene atmosphere contribute to the timeless appeal of the painting. Gérard's use of light and shadow, along with his attention to the textures of fabric and the sitter's skin, demonstrate his skill in achieving a lifelike representation.

The painting was commissioned by Madame Récamier herself, who was dissatisfied with a previous portrait done by another leading artist of the time, Jacques-Louis David. Gérard's portrayal, however, was met with acclaim for its refined depiction and psychological depth, capturing not only the physical beauty of Madame Récamier but also a sense of her character and the aura of her presence.

"Madame Récamier" is not only a masterpiece of François Gérard's oeuvre but also an iconic image of the Napoleonic era, reflecting the cultural and aesthetic ideals of its time. Today, the painting is housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris, where it continues to attract admiration from viewers around the world, serving as a testament to the enduring legacy of both the artist and his muse.
