"Christ au Linceul" (Christ in the Shroud) is a notable painting by the French artist Jean-Jacques Henner (1829–1905). Renowned for his use of sfumato and chiaroscuro techniques, Henner's work often reflects a fascination with religious themes and the human form. This particular painting depicts the figure of Christ after the Crucifixion, enshrouded in a burial cloth. The artwork is emblematic of Henner's style, characterized by a soft, ethereal quality and a focus on the play of light and shadow.

Henner's portrayal of Christ is both somber and serene, capturing a moment of profound stillness and reflection. The painting's composition and the use of color demonstrate Henner's skill in conveying texture and the weight of the fabric as it drapes over Christ's form. The subdued palette and the gentle illumination of the figure's face and hands highlight the spiritual aspect of the subject matter.

"Christ au Linceul" is part of Henner's broader oeuvre, which includes numerous portraits, mythological scenes, and nudes. His work is often noted for its idealized approach to the human body and its exploration of themes of mortality and transcendence. The painting is a testament to Henner's mastery of 19th-century French academic art and his ability to imbue traditional religious iconography with a sense of contemporary sensitivity and emotion.

As an artist, Henner received significant recognition during his lifetime, including the prestigious Prix de Rome in 1858, which allowed him to study in Italy. His works are held in various museums and collections, and "Christ au Linceul" continues to be appreciated for its technical excellence and its evocative representation of a timeless religious narrative.
