"Odalisque au Singe" is a painting by the French artist François Fernand J. Lematte, known for his academic style and Orientalist subject matter. The term "odalisque" refers to a woman in a harem, and it is a common theme in European art, particularly in the 19th century, reflecting the fascination with the exotic and the sensuality of the East. Lematte's work often depicts these serene and idealized female figures, set against a backdrop of rich textiles and intricate architectural details, which were typical of Orientalist imagery.

The painting "Odalisque au Singe" features a reclining female figure, an odalisque, accompanied by a small monkey, or "singe" in French. The presence of the monkey adds an exotic and playful element to the composition, while also serving as a symbol of luxury and the foreign allure associated with the Orient. Lematte's use of soft, diffused lighting and his meticulous attention to the textures of fabrics and the human form are characteristic of his approach to painting.

François Fernand J. Lematte (1850–1929) was a student of the renowned French painter Alexandre Cabanel and exhibited his works at the Paris Salon, the official art exhibition of the Académie des Beaux-Arts in Paris. His paintings are part of the larger Orientalist movement in European art, which gained popularity in the 19th century as artists became increasingly interested in depicting scenes from the Middle East and North Africa, often imbued with a sense of romanticism and otherness.

"Odalisque au Singe" is an example of Lematte's contribution to this genre, showcasing his skill in rendering the human figure and his fascination with the theme of the odalisque. The painting is a testament to the enduring appeal of Orientalist art and the ways in which European artists of the time imagined and interpreted the cultures of the East.
