''La Japonaise (or Camille Monet in Japanese Costume)'' is an 1876 oil painting by the French Impressionist artist Claude Monet. The work is a striking example of Japonisme, the European fascination with Japanese art and design that became prevalent in the late 19th century. The painting features Monet's wife, Camille Doncieux, dressed in an elaborate kimono and holding a Japanese fan, against a backdrop of a vibrant red with Japanese ukiyo-e prints that appear to float around her. The kimono, adorned with wisteria blossoms and a bold display of peacock feathers, is not worn in the traditional Japanese manner, reflecting the Western interpretation and assimilation of Japanese styles and motifs.

Measuring approximately 231.8 cm × 142.3 cm (91.3 in × 56.0 in), the painting is a life-size depiction and is noted for its bold use of color and pattern, which creates a rich tapestry of textures and a sense of exoticism. Monet's brushwork is loose and expressive, characteristic of the Impressionist movement's emphasis on light and movement. The painting is also a testament to the global cultural exchanges of the time and illustrates the impact of non-Western art on the development of modern art in Europe.

''La Japonaise'' was exhibited at the second Impressionist exhibition in 1876, where it garnered attention for its striking composition and its reflection of the contemporary trend of Orientalism. The painting is considered one of Monet's most important works from the 1870s and is often cited as a key example of the intersection between Impressionism and the decorative arts.

Today, ''La Japonaise'' is held in the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, Massachusetts, and continues to be a subject of study for its cultural significance and its role in the evolution of Monet's artistic style. The painting is not only a portrait of the artist's wife but also a canvas that captures the essence of a cultural moment when the West was eagerly absorbing and interpreting the aesthetics of the East.
