"The Tennis Court Oath, 20th June 1789, 1848" is a significant historical painting by French artist Louis Charles Auguste Couder, completed in 1848. The artwork captures a pivotal moment in French history, depicting the scene of the Tennis Court Oath (French: Serment du Jeu de Paume) during the French Revolution. On June 20, 1789, members of the Third Estate, who were locked out of a meeting of the Estates-General, gathered at a tennis court in Versailles. There, they took an oath not to disband until they had drafted a constitution for France, marking a decisive step towards the establishment of a national assembly.

Couder's painting is renowned for its dramatic representation of this event, showcasing the unity and resolve of the deputies as they defied the authority of King Louis XVI. The composition is carefully orchestrated to emphasize the solemnity of the moment, with the figures arranged in a manner that leads the viewer's eye towards the central action. The artist's use of light and shadow, along with the expressive gestures and faces of the individuals, conveys the tension and significance of the oath.

Commissioned during the July Monarchy, Couder's work reflects the 19th-century romantic and liberal political sentiments that sought to celebrate the revolutionary heritage. The painting is housed in the Musée de l'Histoire de France (Museum of the History of France), located in the Palace of Versailles. As a historical document, it serves as a visual interpretation of the events that contributed to the downfall of the Ancien Régime and the rise of modern democratic governance in France. The Tennis Court Oath remains an iconic symbol of unity and the collective will for change, and Couder's painting is a testament to the enduring legacy of this moment in French and world history.
