"The Reception of the Grand Condé at Versailles" is a historical painting by French artist Jean-Léon Gérôme, completed in 1878. The painting is a grandiose representation of the visit of Louis II de Bourbon, Prince of Condé, also known as the Grand Condé, to the Palace of Versailles, where he is received by King Louis XIV of France. This event is a significant moment in French history, symbolizing the reconciliation between the two Louis after the Fronde, a series of civil wars in France during which the Grand Condé had been one of the leading figures against the royal authority.

Gérôme, known for his historical and Orientalist scenes, meticulously researched the period to ensure the authenticity of the costumes, architecture, and details of the courtly life depicted in the painting. The work is characterized by its rich detail, dramatic use of light, and the theatrical staging of the figures, which is typical of Gérôme's academic style. The artist's portrayal of the opulence of the Sun King's court and the intricate social rituals of the time provides viewers with a vivid impression of the grandeur and formality of the French monarchy in the 17th century.

The painting is considered an example of the French academic art tradition of the late 19th century, which emphasized classical themes and a polished technique. "The Reception of the Grand Condé at Versailles" is notable for its grand scale and the artist's ability to convey the splendor and ceremony of the French court. It remains an important work for its historical subject matter and as a representation of Gérôme's artistic legacy. The painting is held in a private collection and has been exhibited in various art museums as part of exhibitions on Gérôme and French historical art.
