"Odalisque (front view)" is a notable sculpture by the Swiss-born French artist James Pradier (1790–1852), who was a prominent figure in the neoclassical movement. The term "odalisque" refers to a female slave or concubine in a harem, particularly within the context of the Ottoman Empire, and has been a popular subject in European art, symbolizing exotic beauty and sensuality.

Pradier's sculpture captures the figure of an odalisque in a reclining pose, which is a common motif in Orientalist art. The work is celebrated for its detailed representation of the female form and its exploration of themes of eroticism and exoticism, which were prevalent in European artistic and literary circles in the 19th century. Pradier's mastery in marble carving is evident in the sculpture's smooth lines and the delicate rendering of the figure's drapery and anatomy.

The "Odalisque (front view)" reflects Pradier's ability to blend classical ideals of beauty with contemporary fascination with the Near East. It is part of a larger body of work by Pradier that includes other sculptures and artistic representations of figures from history and mythology, showcasing his versatility and skill as a sculptor.

As a work of art, Pradier's "Odalisque" has been the subject of various interpretations and scholarly discussions, particularly in relation to the Orientalist discourse and the depiction of women in art. The sculpture is an important piece within Pradier's oeuvre and contributes to the understanding of 19th-century European art and its engagement with non-Western themes.

The sculpture is held in various art collections and has been displayed in several exhibitions, highlighting its significance in the history of Western art. It continues to be studied and appreciated for its aesthetic qualities and its cultural implications.
