"Allegorisches Porträt Einer Dame Des Versaillerhofes Als Vestalin" (Allegorical Portrait of a Lady of the Versailles Court as a Vestal Virgin) is a notable work by French painter Jean Raoux (1677–1734). This painting, created in the early 18th century, exemplifies the Rococo style, which was prevalent during the reign of Louis XV. Raoux, known for his genre scenes and allegorical subjects, often depicted women in various roles, and this work is a prime example of his skill in combining portraiture with historical and mythological themes.

The painting portrays a lady of the Versailles court dressed as a Vestal Virgin, a priestess of Vesta, the Roman goddess of the hearth, home, and family. The Vestal Virgins were renowned for their chastity and for their role in maintaining the sacred fire of Vesta. In Raoux's allegorical interpretation, the subject is not only a representation of a historical figure but also embodies the virtues associated with the Vestals, such as purity and devotion.

The artwork is characterized by its delicate use of light and shadow, which enhances the ethereal quality of the subject. The lady's attire and the classical architectural elements in the background are rendered with meticulous attention to detail, reflecting the artist's commitment to realism within an allegorical framework. Raoux's skillful brushwork and his ability to convey texture and fabric are evident in the flowing robes and the softness of the drapery.
