"Vercingetorix Throws Down His Arms at the Feet of Julius Caesar" is a renowned oil painting completed in 1899 by French artist Lionel Noël Royer. This historical work of art depicts a pivotal moment in the Gallic Wars, specifically the surrender of the Gallic chieftain Vercingetorix to the Roman dictator Julius Caesar in 52 BCE after the Siege of Alesia. The painting is celebrated for its dramatic representation of the event, which marked the culmination of Caesar's conquest of Gaul and the end of Gallic independence.

Royer's composition captures the contrast between the defeated Vercingetorix, who is portrayed with a noble yet resigned demeanor as he offers his arms in submission, and the victorious Caesar, who receives the gesture with a commanding presence. The painting's historical accuracy in terms of costume and weaponry, along with its emotional intensity, has been noted by art historians and critics. It is a prime example of 19th-century French academic art, reflecting the period's interest in historical subjects and the glorification of national history.

The work is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its cultural impact, as it has contributed to the popular image of Vercingetorix as a national hero in France, symbolizing resistance to oppression. "Vercingetorix Throws Down His Arms at the Feet of Julius Caesar" is housed in the Crozatier Museum in Le Puy-en-Velay, France, and continues to be an important piece for both its artistic value and its role in the visual representation of French history.
