"Madame Récamier" is an iconic portrait painted by the French neoclassical artist Jacques-Louis David in 1800. The painting depicts Juliette Récamier, a renowned Parisian socialite, lying on a recamier, a type of chaise longue named after her. She is portrayed in a flowing white empire-line dress, which was fashionable at the time, with her hair styled in a classical manner, emphasizing the neoclassical aesthetic that David was instrumental in popularizing.

The portrait is celebrated for its simplicity and elegance, capturing the subject's grace and the refined taste of the era. The composition is characterized by clean lines, a clear light, and a subdued palette, which serve to focus the viewer's attention on Madame Récamier's serene and contemplative expression. The horizontal format of the painting and the empty space around the figure create a sense of tranquility and poise.

David's work on the portrait coincided with a tumultuous period in French history, amidst the political upheavals following the French Revolution. The artist himself was a prominent supporter of the Revolution and had close ties to its leading figures, including Napoleon Bonaparte. Despite the political undercurrents, the portrait eschews overt political commentary, instead offering a timeless representation of an influential woman known for her beauty and her salon, which was a center of intellectual and political discourse.

The painting remains an important example of early 19th-century portraiture and is often cited for its influence on the development of the Romantic style that would follow. Today, "Madame Récamier" is held in the collection of the Louvre Museum in Paris, where it continues to be admired for its artistic mastery and as a window into the cultural life of post-revolutionary France.
