"The Poem of the Soul Under the Paternal Roof" is one of the series of paintings by the French artist Anne-François-Louis Janmot, known as Louis Janmot (1814–1892), which form part of his larger body of work titled "The Poem of the Soul." This ambitious series, initiated in 1835 and continued throughout Janmot's life, consists of 18 paintings accompanied by poems and explores the journey of the soul from birth to death and beyond, reflecting Janmot's deep spiritual and philosophical convictions.

"Under the Paternal Roof" specifically depicts a scene of domestic tranquility and moral education, where the influence of the family, and particularly the guidance of the father, is central to the nurturing of the soul. The painting is rich in symbolic elements, with the family home often representing a microcosm of the harmonious universe and the nurturing environment necessary for the soul's development. Janmot's work is characterized by its detailed and evocative imagery, which draws on religious iconography and Romantic symbolism to convey its profound themes.

As part of "The Poem of the Soul" series, "Under the Paternal Roof" contributes to the overarching narrative that examines the dualities of life and death, material and spiritual worlds, and innocence and experience. The series as a whole is considered a unique example of French Symbolist painting, and it reflects the broader 19th-century interest in spirituality, personal introspection, and the quest for meaning.

Louis Janmot, primarily associated with the Lyon School of painting, remains a somewhat enigmatic figure in art history, with "The Poem of the Soul" being his magnum opus. The series, including "Under the Paternal Roof," is housed at the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Lyon, where it continues to be an object of study for its complex interplay of visual art and poetry, as well as its rich spiritual and philosophical content.
