"The Dead Child" (French: "L'Enfant mort") is a poignant painting by French artist Charles Cottet, created in 1907. This work is emblematic of Cottet's dark and emotional style, which often explored themes of human suffering and the harsh realities of life. The painting is a striking example of the post-impressionist movement, showcasing Cottet's ability to convey deep emotional resonance through his use of color, composition, and subject matter.

The painting depicts a somber scene of a grieving family in a dimly lit interior, mourning the loss of a child. The central figure, a mother, is seen cradling the lifeless body of her child in a pose that suggests both tenderness and despair. The surrounding figures, likely family members, are portrayed in various states of grief, adding to the overall atmosphere of sorrow and loss.

Cottet's use of muted colors and strong brushstrokes contributes to the painting's emotional impact, drawing the viewer into the intimate and tragic moment. The artist's focus on the universal theme of death and mourning reflects his interest in the human condition and the shared experiences that connect people across different walks of life.

"The Dead Child" is considered one of Charles Cottet's masterpieces and is often cited as a powerful example of the emotional depth and realism that characterized his work. The painting is held in high regard for its ability to capture the raw intensity of grief, serving as a testament to Cottet's skill in portraying the complexities of human emotion.
