"Louis-Auguste Schwiter" is an oil on canvas portrait painted by the renowned French Romantic artist Eugène Delacroix between 1826 and 1827. The painting depicts Louis-Auguste Schwiter, a young man who was part of Delacroix's social circle and a friend of the artist. Schwiter was also known for his association with the composer Frédéric Chopin and the writer Alfred de Vigny.

The portrait is notable for its expressive color and the sensitive portrayal of the sitter's character, which is typical of Delacroix's approach to portraiture. In the painting, Schwiter is depicted in a contemplative pose against a landscape backdrop, which adds a lyrical and almost poetic quality to the work. The use of light and shadow, along with the detailed rendering of Schwiter's attire, reflects Delacroix's skill in capturing both the physical likeness and the inner life of his subjects.

Measuring 105.4 cm × 73.8 cm, the portrait is part of the collection at the National Gallery in London, having been bequeathed to the museum by the sitter's daughter, Claire Schwiter, in 1905. The work is considered an important example of Delacroix's early portraiture and provides insight into the artist's personal relationships and his development as a leading figure in the Romantic movement in French painting.

"Louis-Auguste Schwiter" is admired for its technical mastery and emotional depth, and it continues to be studied for its contribution to the evolution of 19th-century portraiture. The painting is also significant for its historical context, as it captures the image of a figure connected to the intellectual and artistic milieu of Paris during a vibrant period of cultural activity.
