"Getting Dressed" (French: "En Toilette") is an 1869 oil painting by the French artist Charles Edouard Boutibonne, known for his genre paintings and portraits that often depicted the elegance and leisure of the upper classes during the Second French Empire. This work is a fine example of Boutibonne's attention to detail and his ability to capture the nuances of high society life.

The painting portrays a young woman in the midst of her morning routine, being assisted by a maid. The scene is set in a lavishly decorated boudoir, reflecting the opulence of the period. The woman, who is the focal point of the composition, is partially dressed in a luxurious undergarment, suggesting the intimate and private nature of the moment. Her posture and expression convey a sense of relaxed refinement, while the maid, dressed in a more modest attire, attends to her with a dutiful air.

Boutibonne's "Getting Dressed" is notable for its rich color palette and the meticulous rendering of textures, from the softness of the fabrics to the reflective surfaces of the surrounding furniture and accessories. The artist's use of light accentuates the sumptuousness of the setting and the elegance of the subject matter.

As a work that exemplifies the genre painting of the era, "Getting Dressed" offers insight into the daily life of the affluent during the late 19th century, as well as the social roles and expectations of women in high society. The painting is also a testament to Boutibonne's skill as a chronicler of his time, capturing the essence of an era that was increasingly interested in the private lives and personal moments of the bourgeoisie.

While "Getting Dressed" may not be as widely recognized as the works of Boutibonne's contemporaries, it remains an important piece within his oeuvre and a valuable contribution to the understanding of French genre painting in the second half of the 19th century. The painting is held in private collections and has been exhibited in various art galleries, contributing to the appreciation of Boutibonne's artistic legacy.
