"L'amour au théâtre italien" is a painting by the French Rococo artist Jean-Antoine Watteau, known for his idyllic and romantic portrayal of the aristocracy and his pivotal role in the development of the fête galante genre. Created in the early 18th century, this artwork captures a scene of a theatrical performance, reflecting Watteau's fascination with the commedia dell'arte, a form of improvisational theater that originated in Italy and was popular in France during his time.

The painting depicts actors on stage engaged in a comedic or amorous play, with characters in traditional commedia dell'arte costumes, such as Harlequin and Pierrot, interacting with one another. The title, "L'amour au théâtre italien" (Love in the Italian Theater), suggests a focus on the theme of love, which is a common thread in Watteau's oeuvre. The theatrical setting allows Watteau to explore the interplay between reality and illusion, a motif that resonates throughout his work.

Watteau's masterful use of color and light, along with his delicate brushwork, create a sense of immediacy and intimacy, drawing the viewer into the performance. The composition is typically Rococo, with an emphasis on asymmetry, graceful curves, and a lightness of touch. The painting is also notable for its depiction of the contemporary theater culture in France and the influence of Italian performing arts on French society.

"L'amour au théâtre italien" is considered an important work within Watteau's body of art, as it exemplifies his ability to capture the ephemeral moments of pleasure and the nuanced expressions of human emotion. The painting is held in high regard for its artistic merit and as a historical document of 18th-century theatrical practices. It remains a testament to Watteau's enduring legacy as a painter who could enchantingly merge the worlds of art and theater.
