"Le magnetiseur treating a patient in a tavern" is a painting by Belgian artist Charles Venneman (1802–1875), depicting a scene in which a mesmerist, or magnetiseur, is shown treating a patient in the convivial setting of a tavern. The work is a reflection of the 19th-century fascination with mesmerism, also known as animal magnetism, which was a popular subject in the arts and considered a form of alternative medicine at the time. Venneman, known for his detailed genre scenes and historical paintings, captures the moment with a keen eye for detail and character, illustrating the various reactions of the tavern's patrons to the treatment taking place.

The painting serves as a historical document of the period's social practices and beliefs in pseudoscientific medical treatments. It also offers insight into the public's perception of such practices, ranging from skepticism to credulity. Venneman's work is characterized by its fine brushwork and attention to the nuances of facial expressions and body language, which contribute to the narrative quality of the painting. "Le magnetiseur treating a patient in a tavern" not only showcases Venneman's artistic skill but also provides a window into the cultural and medical history of the 19th century. The painting is a valuable piece for both art historians and those interested in the history of medicine, reflecting the intersection of art, science, and society during a time of great change and discovery.
