"Voltaire" by François Bouchot is a renowned oil on canvas portrait of the Enlightenment writer, historian, and philosopher Voltaire. Painted in 1843, the artwork is notable for capturing the intellectual's sharp features and expressive eyes, which reflect his reputation as a witty and incisive critic of the French establishment and advocate for civil liberties, freedom of religion, and free trade.

The painting presents Voltaire seated, draped in a voluminous red robe that contrasts with the dark background, directing the viewer's attention to his face. His white hair and the quill in his hand are emblematic of his status as a writer and thinker. Bouchot's work is celebrated for its ability to convey Voltaire's character and the spirit of the Age of Enlightenment.

This portrait is often used as a visual reference for Voltaire, as it encapsulates the essence of his persona and his lasting influence on the cultural and philosophical landscape of Europe. The painting is housed in the Musée Carnavalet in Paris, which is dedicated to the history of the city and holds a significant collection of French Revolution artifacts.

François Bouchot (1800–1842), a pupil of Girodet, was a French history painter who was known for his historical and genre scenes. His depiction of Voltaire is considered one of his masterpieces and continues to be an important image for historical and educational purposes, reflecting the enduring legacy of one of France's greatest literary figures.
