"Virgile lisant l'Énéide devant Auguste et Livie" (English: "Virgil Reading the Aeneid Before Augustus and Livia") is a historical painting by the French artist Charles Boulanger de Boisfremont. Created in the 19th century, this artwork depicts the ancient Roman poet Virgil, as he presents his epic poem, the Aeneid, to the Emperor Augustus and his wife Livia. The painting captures a moment of cultural significance, portraying the intersection of art and power in the Roman Empire.

In the scene, Virgil is shown in the act of reading, likely from a scroll, which was the common medium for literary works at the time. Augustus and Livia are attentive listeners, embodying the patronage of the arts that was a hallmark of Augustus's reign. The painting is rich in historical detail and reflects the neoclassical style that was prevalent during Boisfremont's time, characterized by a return to classical subject matter, clarity of form, and an emphasis on idealized beauty.

The composition of the painting is carefully constructed to emphasize the central figures and the gravity of the moment. The use of light and shadow, as well as the positioning of the characters, draws the viewer's attention to the expressions and interactions between the poet and the imperial couple. This work not only represents an important episode from classical antiquity but also serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of the Aeneid and its influence on Western literature.

Charles Boulanger de Boisfremont (1773–1838) was a French painter known for his historical and mythological scenes. Trained at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, Boisfremont was a contemporary of artists such as Jacques-Louis David and Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres. His works are part of the tradition of academic painting, and "Virgile lisant l'Énéide devant Auguste et Livie" stands as one of his notable contributions to the genre, reflecting both his artistic skill and his engagement with the cultural narratives of his time.
