"The Autolycus Scene from A Winter's Tale" is an oil painting by the British artist Charles Robert Leslie (1794–1859), which depicts a moment from William Shakespeare's play "The Winter's Tale." This work is one of Leslie's numerous contributions to the genre of literary painting, where scenes from famous literary works are rendered in visual form. Leslie, who was known for his genre and literary scenes, often drew inspiration from Shakespeare's plays, and this painting is a testament to his interest in the Bard's work.

In "The Winter's Tale," Autolycus is a roguish character, a peddler, and a pickpocket who provides comic relief in the pastoral second half of the play. The scene captured by Leslie likely illustrates Act IV, Scene III, or a moment closely related to it, where Autolycus is involved in trickery and merriment at the expense of the shepherds. The painting would typically showcase Leslie's attention to detail, character expression, and the vibrant interaction among the figures, embodying the lively and humorous spirit of the scene.

Leslie's work, including "The Autolycus Scene from A Winter's Tale," reflects the 19th-century fascination with Shakespearean themes and the Victorian era's penchant for narrative art. The painting would be of particular interest to scholars of British art, literary painting, and the visual culture of the Victorian period, as well as to enthusiasts of Shakespearean adaptations.

As an artist, Charles Robert Leslie was a member of the Royal Academy and enjoyed considerable success during his lifetime. His paintings are characterized by their narrative richness and the ability to capture the essence of the literary source material. "The Autolycus Scene from A Winter's Tale" would be an example of his skill in translating the wit and vivacity of Shakespeare's text into a compelling visual tableau.
