"Salomé" is an oil painting by the French artist Henri Alexandre Georges Regnault, completed in 1870. The painting is a striking depiction of the biblical figure Salomé, known for her dance before Herod Antipas and her request for the head of John the Baptist. Regnault's interpretation of Salomé is a testament to his fascination with Orientalism and the exotic, which was a prevalent theme among European artists of the 19th century.

The painting showcases Salomé in a moment of contemplative stillness, rather than the act of dancing, which is more commonly depicted in other artistic interpretations. She is portrayed with a sense of elegance and an air of melancholy, set against a richly detailed background that evokes the opulence of the Near Eastern setting. The use of vibrant colors and intricate patterns in her attire and the surroundings reflects Regnault's attention to detail and his desire to capture the essence of the exotic locales that inspired him.

Regnault's "Salomé" is often noted for its technical prowess and the emotional depth it conveys. The artist's life was tragically cut short at the age of 27 when he was killed during the Franco-Prussian War, making this work one of the last major pieces he completed. As such, "Salomé" holds a significant place in Regnault's oeuvre and is considered one of the masterpieces of Orientalist art. The painting is also an important example of the themes of femme fatale and the intersection of sexuality and death that fascinated many artists and writers during the fin de siècle period.

Today, "Salomé" is held in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, where it continues to be studied and admired for its beauty and its complex interplay of themes. Regnault's work remains an important contribution to the academic study of Orientalism in art and the cultural depiction of biblical narratives in the 19th century.
