"Gladiateurs" is a painting by French artist Gustave Surand, created in 1883. The work depicts a scene from ancient Rome, specifically within the context of gladiatorial combat, a popular form of public spectacle that often took place in amphitheaters such as the Colosseum. Surand's painting captures the intense and brutal nature of these contests, which were a significant aspect of Roman entertainment and social life.

Gustave Surand (1860-1937) was known for his historical and orientalist subjects, and in "Gladiateurs," he brings to life the drama and violence of the gladiatorial games. The painting is characterized by its dynamic composition, attention to historical detail, and the vivid portrayal of the gladiators' physical exertion and emotional states. Surand's use of color and light emphasizes the contrast between the glory and the tragedy inherent in the gladiatorial combat.

The artwork serves as a historical representation, reflecting the fascination of 19th-century European artists with classical antiquity and the exoticism of distant cultures and epochs. "Gladiateurs" is an example of the academic art style of the period, which valued technical skill, realism, and adherence to classical standards of beauty.

While "Gladiateurs" is not as widely recognized as some other works from the same era, it is an important piece within Surand's oeuvre and contributes to the understanding of 19th-century French art and its engagement with historical themes. The painting is also significant for its exploration of the human condition, as it portrays the complex interplay of honor, violence, and spectacle in a historical context that continues to captivate modern audiences.
