"Portrait of Ugo Foscolo (1778-1827)" is an oil painting by the French artist François-Xavier Fabre, created in 1813. The portrait depicts the Italian writer and poet Ugo Foscolo, who is best known for his literary works and his contribution to the Italian Neoclassical movement. Foscolo, a prominent figure in Italian literature, was an advocate for Italian independence and unity, themes that are often reflected in his writings.

François-Xavier Fabre (1766–1837) was a historical painter and a pupil of Jacques-Louis David, the leading French painter of the neoclassical era. Fabre's style was influenced by his mentor, and he became known for his portraits and historical subjects. In the "Portrait of Ugo Foscolo," Fabre captures the intellectual spirit and the introspective nature of the poet. The painting is characterized by its fine detail, the realistic depiction of Foscolo's features, and the subdued color palette typical of neoclassical portraiture.

The portrait is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical context. It was painted during a period when Foscolo had taken refuge in Switzerland, having left Italy due to political upheavals and his opposition to the Napoleonic regime. The painting thus represents Foscolo in his exile, a time when he was engaged in some of his most important literary work.

"Portrait of Ugo Foscolo" is held in high regard for its portrayal of one of Italy's cultural icons and for its representation of the neoclassical style in portraiture. The artwork is an important piece in the oeuvre of François-Xavier Fabre and serves as a visual document of the cultural and political climate of early 19th-century Europe. The painting is part of the collections of the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, Italy, where it remains accessible to the public and continues to be studied and admired by scholars and art enthusiasts alike.
