"Exaltation of Faro's Daughters" is a satirical print by the British caricaturist James Gillray, created in 1796. The artwork serves as a scathing commentary on the gambling culture among the British aristocracy of the 18th century, particularly focusing on the card game faro and its impact on women of high society. Gillray, known for his sharp wit and keen observation, uses the medium of etching and engraving to depict a scene where women are metaphorically elevated, or 'exalted', by their obsession with the gambling table.

The print showcases Gillray's adeptness at capturing the excesses and vices of his time, employing exaggerated figures and expressions to convey his critical perspective. "Exaltation of Faro's Daughters" is emblematic of Gillray's style, which often combined sophisticated artistry with acerbic social critique. His work not only entertained but also provided a visual commentary on the political and social issues of the day, influencing the development of satirical art in Britain.

As with many of Gillray's prints, "Exaltation of Faro's Daughters" was published by Hannah Humphrey, with whom Gillray had a close professional relationship. The print remains an important example of Georgian-era satire and is studied for its historical context as well as its artistic merit. It is held in various collections, including the British Museum, and continues to be a subject of interest for scholars of art history and social history alike.
