"Study for the Tennis Court Oath" is a preparatory work by the French painter Louis Charles Auguste Couder, created in the 19th century as part of his process to produce a larger, more definitive painting. The piece is a historical depiction of the pivotal moment during the French Revolution when members of the Third Estate, who were locked out of a meeting of the Estates-General on June 20, 1789, gathered at a tennis court in Versailles. There, they took an oath not to disband until a new constitution for France had been adopted, signifying a collective assertion that political authority derived from the people and their representatives rather than from the monarchy alone.

Couder's study captures the intensity and fervor of this revolutionary act, which was a significant precursor to the fall of the monarchy and the establishment of the French Republic. The artwork serves as an important visual document of the revolutionary spirit and is reflective of the Romantic era's emphasis on emotion and heroism. While the final painting was intended to be a grand historical canvas, the study itself provides insight into Couder's artistic process, including composition, the portrayal of individual figures, and the use of light and shadow to convey the dramatic atmosphere of the event.

The "Study for the Tennis Court Oath" by Couder is an example of how artists of the period engaged with the political upheavals of their time, using their work to both document and comment on the events that shaped the modern world. It remains an important artifact for both art historians and scholars of the French Revolution, offering a window into the ways in which art and history intertwine.
