"Portrait of Jacques Cazotte (1719-1792), c. 1760-65" is an oil painting by French artist Jean-Baptiste Perroneau, a noted pastelist and portraitist of the 18th century. The painting is a significant work of art that captures the likeness of Jacques Cazotte, a French writer known for his fantastical and satirical works, including the novel "Le Diable amoureux" (The Devil in Love). Cazotte was also a prominent figure during the Enlightenment and is remembered for his tragic end during the French Revolution, where he was guillotined for his royalist sympathies.

Perroneau's portrait is a testament to his skill in capturing the character and social status of his sitters. The painting is characterized by its refined execution and the lifelike representation of Cazotte, showcasing Perroneau's mastery of oil painting, a medium less commonly used by him compared to pastel. The artwork reflects the aesthetic values of the time, emphasizing naturalism, elegance, and the subtleties of human expression.

The portrait is notable for its historical and cultural significance, as it provides a visual documentation of an intellectual from a transformative period in French history. It also exemplifies the style and techniques of portraiture in the Rococo period, which often focused on the sophistication and grace of the aristocracy and the intellectual elite.

As of the knowledge cutoff date, the painting is part of a collection in an unspecified museum or private collection. The work is occasionally displayed in exhibitions focusing on French portraiture, the Rococo period, or the oeuvre of Jean-Baptiste Perroneau. It continues to be a subject of study for art historians interested in the period and in the artist's body of work.
