"Bed of Justice Held in the Parliament at the Majority of Louis XV" is a significant historical painting by the French artist Nicolas Lancret (1690–1743), a prominent figure in the Rococo movement, known for his genre scenes, courtly subjects, and decorative compositions. This artwork captures a pivotal moment in French history, the "bed of justice" (lit de justice), a ceremonial event where the King of France would impose his will upon the parliament, often to register edicts or laws that the parliament might otherwise resist. The painting specifically depicts the event marking the coming of age and majority of King Louis XV, which took place in the French Parliament.

Lancret's work is celebrated for its detailed representation of the figures, costumes, and the grandeur of the setting, offering a vivid insight into the political and social dynamics of 18th-century France. The artist's skill in capturing the opulence of the court and the intricate interactions among its members makes this painting not only a valuable historical document but also a masterpiece of Rococo art. Through his meticulous attention to detail and the dynamic composition, Lancret conveys the tension and significance of the event, highlighting the young king's assertion of power and the complex relationship between the monarchy and the law-making body.

This painting is an essential work for understanding the cultural and political landscape of Louis XV's reign, reflecting the ceremonial aspects of monarchy and the intricate ballet of power, persuasion, and protocol in the French court. Nicolas Lancret, through his artistic prowess, provides a window into the past, capturing the essence of an era where art and politics were deeply intertwined.
