Chez Le Notaire, also known as At the Notary's, is a notable painting by the French artist Benjamin Eugene Fichel, who was active during the 19th century. Fichel, born in 1826 and passing in 1895, was a genre painter known for his detailed and often humorous depictions of everyday life. His works frequently capture the essence of bourgeois society with a keen eye for character and setting, and Chez Le Notaire is no exception.

The painting portrays a scene within a notary's office, a common setting for legal and financial transactions in 19th-century France. Fichel's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the way he renders the interior, complete with period furnishings and accessories that provide a glimpse into the era's material culture. The characters in the painting are depicted with expressive faces and postures, each one contributing to the narrative of the scene. The notary, typically an older, authoritative figure, is shown engaged in his work, while clients, possibly a family or individuals seeking legal advice, are portrayed in various states of anticipation, concern, or contemplation.

Fichel's use of light and shadow enhances the realism of the scene, drawing the viewer's eye to key elements and creating a sense of depth and space. The composition is carefully balanced, with each figure and object contributing to the overall harmony of the piece. Chez Le Notaire exemplifies Fichel's skill in capturing the subtleties of human interaction and the social dynamics of his time.

This painting not only serves as a fine example of Fichel's artistic prowess but also offers valuable insights into the social and cultural context of 19th-century France. It remains a significant work within the genre painting tradition and continues to be appreciated for its historical and artistic value.
