"Vue de Palmyre" (View of Palmyra) is a notable artwork by the French painter, draftsman, and engraver Louis-François Cassas (1756–1827), known for his detailed architectural and landscape views. Created during Cassas's journey to the Middle East in the late 18th century, this work is part of a series that captures the grandeur and decay of the ancient city of Palmyra in present-day Syria.

The artwork reflects the growing interest in Orientalism and the archaeological exploration of the period, which was fueled by a fascination with the exotic and the rediscovery of ancient civilizations. Cassas's journey, which was sponsored by notable patrons, aimed to document the architectural heritage of the Eastern Mediterranean. His works, including "Vue de Palmyre," played a significant role in introducing European audiences to the visual and cultural wonders of the region.

"Vue de Palmyre" is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail and its emphasis on the ruins' romantic and picturesque qualities. Cassas's skillful use of light and shadow, combined with his precise rendering of the ancient structures, conveys both the beauty and the melancholic atmosphere of the site. The artwork not only serves as an important historical record of Palmyra's appearance before modern restorations and destructions but also as a testament to the 18th-century European engagement with the wider world.

Louis-François Cassas's work, including "Vue de Palmyre," contributed to the documentation and preservation of heritage sites and had a lasting impact on the fields of archaeology, art history, and cultural studies. His drawings and engravings were later published in the influential collection "Voyage pittoresque de la Syrie, de la Phoenicie, de la Palestine, et de la Basse Egypte" (Picturesque Voyage to Syria, Phoenicia, Palestine, and Lower Egypt), which disseminated these images to a broader audience and cemented Cassas's reputation as a prominent figure in the Orientalist art movement.
