"Study for the Death of the Virgin" is a renowned artwork by French artist Jean Jules Antoine Lecomte du Nouy (1842 - 1923). Lecomte du Nouy, primarily known for his Orientalist and history paintings, often depicted religious scenarios or biblical characters in his works, conveying a striking realism and dedication to detail.

"Study for the Death of the Virgin" is one such work by the artist that showcases his finesse in handling religious themes. The painting illustrates the narrative of the death of Virgin Mary, also referred to as the 'Dormition of the Virgin', a customary theme in Christian art.

The painting reflects Lecomte du Nouy's characteristic Realist style and Orientalist fascination while demonstrating his superb grasp of the human form and mastery of portraying intricate details. He was widely endorsed for his technique in rendering fabrics, shadows, and human skin, all of which are prominent in this painting.

As is evident in most of his oeuvre, Lecomte du Nouy's depiction of the Virgin's passing is marked by the juxtaposition of the despair of the mortality with the serenity of divine ascension.

While the precise date of the work's creation is not definitively recorded, "Study for the Death of the Virgin" contributes to the understanding of Lecomte du Nouy's artistic repertoire. It underscores his inclination towards religious themes while demonstrating the artist's commitment to realist, emotive portrayal of such scenes.
