"Portrait of Voltaire" is a notable 18th-century painting by French artist Nicolas de Largillière, depicting the Enlightenment writer, historian, and philosopher Voltaire. Born François-Marie Arouet in 1694, Voltaire became one of the most famous figures of the French Enlightenment, known for his wit, his advocacy of civil liberties, and his criticism of the Catholic Church and French institutions of his time.

The portrait, which captures Voltaire later in his life, is a testament to Largillière's skill in portraiture and his ability to convey the intellectual spirit of his subjects. Largillière was renowned for his vibrant color palette and the detailed textures in his work, both of which are evident in this portrait. The painting showcases Voltaire's sharp gaze and the lively expression that often characterized the philosopher's dynamic personality and keen intellect.

Nicolas de Largillière (1656–1746) was a prolific and celebrated painter during the reigns of Louis XIV, Louis XV, and Louis XVI.

The "Portrait of Voltaire" by Largillière is not only an important work of art from a historical perspective but also serves as a cultural artifact that provides insight into the intellectual climate of the time. It remains an essential piece for understanding both the artist's oeuvre and the subject's legacy.
