Le Loup, also known as The Wolf, is a notable watercolor painting by the Swiss-French artist Karl Bodmer, created during the early 19th century. Bodmer is renowned for his detailed and ethnographically significant depictions of Native American life and the landscapes of North America, which he produced during his travels with the German explorer Prince Maximilian of Wied-Neuwied between 1832 and 1834. This expedition aimed to document the natural environment and the indigenous cultures of the American frontier, and Bodmer's artworks played a crucial role in achieving this objective.

Le Loup captures the essence of the American wilderness with a focus on a lone wolf, a creature that symbolizes both the untamed nature of the landscape and the complex relationship between humans and wildlife. The painting is characterized by Bodmer's meticulous attention to detail and his ability to render the textures and subtleties of the wolf's fur, as well as the surrounding environment. The composition of the painting reflects Bodmer's skill in balancing realism with artistic expression, creating a work that is both scientifically valuable and aesthetically compelling.

Bodmer's work, including Le Loup, is highly regarded for its accuracy and sensitivity, providing a window into a world that was rapidly changing due to westward expansion and the encroachment of European settlers. His paintings and sketches are considered invaluable records of the period, offering insights into the flora, fauna, and indigenous peoples of North America. Today, Le Loup and other works by Bodmer are held in various collections and continue to be studied and admired for their historical significance and artistic merit.
