"Saint Cloud Recommended to the Virgin and Child by Saint Clotilde and Saint Genevieve" is a notable oil painting by the French Baroque artist Louis de La Hire, also known as La Hyre, created in the 17th century. This work exemplifies La Hyre's classical style, which he developed under the influence of his contemporaries and the prevailing artistic trends of the French Baroque period. The painting depicts a religious scene in which Saint Cloud, a Frankish nobleman who renounced his claim to the throne in favor of a religious life, is presented to the Virgin Mary and the Christ Child by two revered French saints, Saint Clotilde and Saint Genevieve.

Saint Clotilde, known for her role in the conversion of her husband, King Clovis I, to Christianity, and Saint Genevieve, the patron saint of Paris celebrated for her piety and acts of mercy, are shown interceding on behalf of Saint Cloud. The composition of the painting is carefully arranged to convey a sense of divine hierarchy and sanctity, with the Virgin and Child positioned centrally and above the saints, emphasizing their celestial status.

Louis de La Hire, active during the first half of the 17th century, was a prominent figure in the French art scene. His work is characterized by a blend of classical idealism and realistic observation, and he was known for his religious compositions, landscapes, and mythological scenes. "Saint Cloud Recommended to the Virgin and Child by Saint Clotilde and Saint Genevieve" is a testament to La Hyre's skill in creating devotional images that were both aesthetically pleasing and spiritually uplifting.

The painting is significant not only for its artistic merits but also for its cultural and historical context, as it reflects the religious fervor and the veneration of saints that were integral to French society during La Hyre's lifetime. It remains an important example of 17th-century French Baroque art and contributes to our understanding of the era's religious iconography and the stylistic evolution of one of its key practitioners.
