"Jeroboam Offering Sacrifice for the Idol" (1752) is a significant historical painting by the French artist Jean-Honoré Fragonard (1732–1806). This artwork is an early example of Fragonard's talent, created during his formative years when he was developing the Rococo style that would later define his career. The painting depicts a biblical scene from the First Book of Kings in the Old Testament, where Jeroboam, the first king of the northern Kingdom of Israel, is shown making a sacrifice to a golden calf idol. This act of idolatry was condemned by the biblical prophet and led to the eventual downfall of Jeroboam's reign.

Fragonard's interpretation of this scene is notable for its dramatic composition, rich color palette, and the dynamic interplay of light and shadow, which emphasizes the emotional intensity of the moment. The painting showcases Fragonard's skill in rendering figures and his ability to convey narrative through visual art. The work reflects the artist's academic training and his mastery of religious and historical subjects before he turned to the more lighthearted and pastoral themes that characterized his later work.

"Jeroboam Offering Sacrifice for the Idol" is an important work in Fragonard's oeuvre as it captures the artist's transition from a history painter to one of the leading exponents of the Rococo movement. The painting is also a valuable piece for understanding the broader context of 18th-century French art, where biblical and historical subjects were often used to explore complex moral and philosophical themes. The artwork's current location and provenance, as well as its critical reception and influence on subsequent generations of artists, contribute to its significance in the history of art.
