"La demande en mariage", or "The Marriage Proposal", is an 1882 painting by Dutch painter Evert Jan Boks. As a representative of the Hague School of artists, Boks was well known for his genre paintings featuring scenes from everyday life, andLa demande en mariage" is a prime example of his work in this style.

The painting depicts a young man nervously proposing to a woman, presumably of some standing, in the setting of a beautifully decorated room. The artist's attention to detail in the depiction of the various elements in the room, from the luxurious furnishings to the ornamented fireplace, is reminiscent of the focus on domestic interiors characteristic of his contemporaries in the Hague School.

In the context of Boks’ broader oeuvre, "La demande en mariage" presents a common theme of courtship, casting light on the social norms of the period. The tension and vulnerability of the situation are conveyed through the body language of the protagonists, in combination with Boks' mastery of using light and shade to heighten emotional atmospherics.

As with most of Boks' work, "La demande en mariage" exhibits a meticulous execution and an acute observation of the social intricacies of the era. Today, this painting is appreciated not only for its artistic merits but also as a valuable graphic document of Dutch society in the late 19th century.
