"OEdipe Et Antigone" is a notable work by French artist Francois-Xavier Fabre who was known for his Neoclassical style blending finesse with a mastery of line, light, and shade. Completed in 1801, the painting is a distinct representation of the profoundly tragic story from Greek mythology involving Oedipus and his daughter Antigone.

The powerfully portrays Oedipus, the tragic hero of Theban plays by Sophocles, who was fated to kill his father Lai and marry his mother Jasta. Driven into despair and self-inflictive blindness after the discovery, OEdipe is shown frail and blind, clinging to Antigone, his daughter-sister, who assumes the role of his caretaker.

Fabre's interpretation of the characters engages with the emotional dynamics, emphasizing the paradoxical relationship between parent and child, sightedness and blindness, innocence, and guilt. The somber tones of the painting lend a gravity to the tragic circumstances that the protagonists find themselves in, reflecting the turmoil and profound sorrow that characterizes their fate.

"OEdipe Et Antigone" serves as an emblematic representation of the Neoclassical movement, illustrating the period's refined aesthetic, its fascination with mythological and historical subject matter, and its emphasis on conveying powerful human emotion. Today, the painting is housed in the Musée Fabre, a museum in Montpellier, France, dedicated to the artist and his work. It remains a powerful reminder of Fabre's remarkable ability to imbue classical themes with depth and poignant emotion.
