"Ellen Terry as Lady Macbeth" is a celebrated oil painting by the American artist John Singer Sargent, completed in 1889. The work is a dramatic and vivid portrait of the renowned English actress Dame Ellen Terry (1847–1928) in the role of Lady Macbeth, one of William Shakespeare's most iconic characters. The painting captures Terry adorned in a resplendent, symbol-laden costume designed by Alice Comyns Carr for her performance in the 1888 production of "Macbeth" at the Lyceum Theatre in London, where she starred alongside the famous actor Henry Irving.

The portrait is notable for its grand scale, measuring approximately 221 cm by 114.3 cm (87 in by 45 in), and is characterized by Sargent's masterful use of color and light to convey the psychological intensity and regal bearing of Terry's portrayal. The actress's costume, shimmering with green beetlewing embellishments, is rendered with meticulous detail and contrasts dramatically with the dark, atmospheric background, emphasizing her ethereal presence and the otherworldly nature of the character she embodies.

Sargent's painting is not only a testament to his skill as a portraitist but also serves as a historical document of Victorian theatre and the collaborative relationship between artists and the stage. The work was first exhibited at the New Gallery in London in 1889 and has since become an iconic image in the canon of theatrical portraiture. It is held in the collection of the Tate Gallery in London, where it continues to be a subject of admiration for both its artistic merit and its cultural significance in the realm of performing arts.

Ellen Terry's portrayal of Lady Macbeth was celebrated in her time for its nuance and power, and Sargent's depiction of her has become one of the most enduring images of an actress in a role, capturing the spirit of Terry's performance and the essence of Sargent's artistic prowess. The painting remains a significant work in the study of both fine art and theatrical history, reflecting the rich interplay between these two creative worlds at the end of the 19th century.
