"Soldat Grec Au Repos" (English: "Greek Soldier at Rest") is an oil painting by the French artist François-Xavier Fabre, created in 1787. The artwork is a notable example of neoclassical painting, a movement that sought to emulate the art and culture of ancient Greece and Rome. Fabre, who was born in Montpellier in 1766 and died in 1837, was a prominent figure in the neoclassical art movement, and his works are characterized by their classical themes, balanced compositions, and refined execution.

The painting depicts a Greek soldier in a moment of repose, reflecting the neoclassical fascination with the valor and virtues of the ancient world. The soldier's pose and attire are reminiscent of classical sculptures, emphasizing the idealized beauty and nobility associated with ancient Greek warriors. Fabre's attention to detail and his ability to convey the textures of the soldier's skin and armor demonstrate his mastery of the neoclassical style.

"Soldat Grec Au Repos" is celebrated for its historical accuracy and its romanticized portrayal of the classical past. The work captures the zeitgeist of the late 18th century, a period marked by a revival of interest in classical antiquity, which was partly inspired by the archaeological discoveries of the time and the Enlightenment's emphasis on reason and harmony.

François-Xavier Fabre was not only a painter but also an art collector and the founder of the Musée Fabre in Montpellier. His contributions to the arts were significant, and his legacy is preserved through his paintings and the museum that continues to bear his name. "Soldat Grec Au Repos" remains an important work within Fabre's oeuvre, offering insight into the neoclassical aesthetic and the cultural aspirations of the period in which it was created.
