"Psyche Abandoned" (French: "Psyché abandonnée") is a notable sculpture created by the French artist Jacques-Augustin Pajou in the late 18th century. Pajou, born in 1766 and active during a period marked by the transition from Rococo to Neoclassicism, was the son of the renowned sculptor Augustin Pajou. His works often reflect the stylistic and thematic shifts of his time, characterized by a blend of delicate sensuality and classical restraint.

The sculpture depicts Psyche, a figure from ancient Greek mythology, who is often associated with the soul and its trials. In the myth, Psyche is a mortal woman of extraordinary beauty who becomes the object of both divine jealousy and love. "Psyche Abandoned" captures a poignant moment in her story, likely reflecting the period when she is left alone and desolate, separated from her lover, Eros (Cupid). This theme of abandonment and emotional turmoil is a recurring motif in art and literature, resonating deeply with the Romantic sensibilities that were beginning to emerge during Pajou's lifetime.

Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, Pajou's "Psyche Abandoned" exemplifies the artist's skill in rendering the human form with both anatomical precision and expressive depth. The sculpture's composition, with Psyche's downcast gaze and languid posture, conveys a sense of vulnerability and introspection. The delicate treatment of the marble surface, combined with the fluidity of the drapery and the softness of Psyche's features, highlights Pajou's mastery in creating lifelike and emotionally compelling works.

"Psyche Abandoned" stands as a testament to Pajou's artistic legacy and his ability to evoke complex emotional states through sculpture. It remains an important piece within the broader context of 18th-century French art, reflecting the era's fascination with classical themes and the human condition.
