Sir Walter Raleigh Laying His Cloak Before Queen Elizabeth I is a historical created by notable French painter Eugene Louis Lami. The painting, which derives inspiration from an incident of English lore revolving around Sir Walter Raleigh and Queen Elizabeth I, showcases Lami's iconic romantic style embedded with historical accuracy.

The incident featured in the painting is the story of how Sir Walter Raleigh had laid his cloak over a mud puddle to prevent the shoes of Queen Elizabeth I from getting soiled. This anecdote, set during the Elizabethan era, is considered widely known within the English-speaking world, often cited as a classic demonstration of Raleigh's chivalry and cunning.

In this work, Lami impeccably captures the perceived moment in an artistic interpretation which breathes life into the folklore. Details such as Queen Elizabeth's courtly attire, Sir Walter Raleigh's gallant stance, and the onlooking courtiers encapsulated in the background all add to the historical authenticity of the artwork. Furthermore, the skillful depiction of light and shade is also indicative of Lami's mastery.

The reactions of the figures add a human touch, emphasizing the intrigue and drama of the time. Lami's attention to detail – from the textures of the materials to the tones of the colors employed – enhances the visual experience of the observer and incites appreciation for the artist's refined skills.
