"Socrate Venant Chercher Alcibiade Dans La Maison De Aspasie" is a notable work of art painted by French artist Jean-Léon Gérôme Completed in 1861, the painting is a classic example of the artist's established academicism style, exhibited in a dramatic tableau with philosophical overtones.

The painting presents a scene from ancient Greece, prominently featuring two historical figures: philosopher Socrates and statesman Alcibiades. Here, Gérôme captures the moment when Socrates is seen persuading Alcibiades to leave the house of Aspasia, a renowned hetaera often associated with prominent statesmen. The pretext of the scene lies in well-documented accounts suggesting the tutor-student relationship between Socrates and Alcibiades, whereby the former often compelled the latter towards pursuing virtue and statesmanship.

Gérôme's masterful handling of untamed light and character articulation set against a nuanced domestic background add to the visual appeal of the artwork. Furthermore, the artist explores human dynamics, emphasizing philosophical principles of morality and virtue. This painting strikes a compelling balance between the tradition of history painting and Gérôme’s personal fluid style, thus making it an enduring example of 19th-century French art.
