L'habillage is a notable artwork painted by French artist Henri Pierre Picou. Henri Pierre Picou (27 July 1824 – 17 February 1895) was a French painter and draughtsman, associated with Neoclassicism. Born in Nantes, Picou studied at the Beaux-Arts, Paris, under Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, alongside recognized artists like Gustave Boulanger and Jean-Léon Gérôme.

L'habillage, specifically, is a splendid showcase of Picou's talent, painted in the distinct Neoclassical style that characterizes much of his work. The painting exhibits delicate and exquisite detailing, as well as a high degree of technical skill, which is apparent in the rendering of textures and light in the composition. Picou’s manipulations of color and line create numerous striking contrasts and harmonies throughout the painting, giving it a sense of tranquility and beauty. The artwork is remarkable for its emotive potency, as well as its nostalgia-evoking depiction of antiquity, which was a common theme in Neoclassical art.

The title “L'habillage”, or “The Dressing”, offers insight into the thematic essence of the artwork. The painting portrays an intimate scene, where the primary focus is a female figure being dressed by her handmaidens. Rendered with remarkable attention to detail, the scene is a reference to the everyday moments in the lives of ancient Greeks, a reflection of Picou’s fascination with classical mythology and history.

As is typical of Picou’s work, L'habillage demonstrates a deep reverence for the art and culture of classical antiquity, and embodies the ideals of balance, harmony, and clarity that were key to the Neoclassical movement. Through his brush, these historical moments are lent a sense of realism and immediacy, bringing the viewer closer to the world of the ancients. This piece remains a testament to Picou’s remarkable prowess as a painter and his key role in the Neoclassical movement in nineteenth-century French art.
