"Gloria Victis!" is a notable work by French Symbolist painter Gustave Moreau, created in 1874. This painting, whose title translates to "Glory to the Vanquished" in Latin, reflects Moreau's intricate and symbolic style, which diverged from the prevailing Realist and Impressionist movements of his time. The artwork is imbued with historical and allegorical significance, often interpreted as a commentary on the aftermath of the Franco-Prussian War (1870-1871) and the broader human condition of suffering and resilience in the face of defeat.

The painting depicts a poignant scene of an angel carrying a fallen warrior, symbolizing the transcendence of the human spirit over the despair of loss and defeat. The use of dramatic lighting and vibrant color contrasts highlights the emotional intensity and thematic complexity of the piece. Moreau's meticulous attention to detail and his incorporation of symbolic elements contribute to the painting's depth, inviting viewers to reflect on themes of sacrifice, honor, and the cyclical nature of struggle and redemption.

"Gloria Victis!" is celebrated for its technical mastery and its evocative portrayal of universal themes, securing its place in Moreau's oeuvre as a work that challenges and transcends the artistic conventions of its time. The painting is housed in the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, where it continues to captivate and inspire audiences with its timeless message of hope and the enduring dignity of the human spirit in the face of adversity.
