"Charlotte Wolter as the Empress Messalina" is a notable painting by the Austrian artist Hans Makart, created in the 19th century. The artwork is a portrait of the acclaimed Austrian actress Charlotte Wolter (1834–1897), depicted in the role of Messalina, the infamous third wife of the Roman Emperor Claudius. Makart, known for his grand historical and allegorical paintings, captures Wolter in a dramatic and evocative pose, reflecting both the actress's commanding stage presence and the character's notorious reputation.

The painting is a testament to Makart's skill in portraiture and his penchant for theatricality, as well as his connection to the cultural milieu of Vienna, where he was a central figure in the art scene. Charlotte Wolter, renowned for her powerful performances, was one of the leading actresses of the Burgtheater, the Austrian National Theatre in Vienna. Her portrayal of Messalina was one of her most celebrated roles, and Makart's painting immortalizes her interpretation of the character.

In this work, Makart employs his characteristic rich color palette and detailed textural effects to create a sumptuous and captivating image. The painting not only showcases the artist's mastery of form and composition but also serves as a historical document of the theatrical and artistic trends of the period. "Charlotte Wolter as the Empress Messalina" remains an important piece in the oeuvre of Hans Makart and a significant cultural artifact reflecting the intersection of fine art and theatrical performance in 19th-century Europe.
