"Marguerite au Sabbat" is a painting by French artist Pascal-Adolphe-Jean Dagnan-Bouveret, created in 1880. This work is one of the notable examples of Dagnan-Bouveret's engagement with themes from literature and folklore, which he often infused with a sense of realism—a hallmark of his artistic style. The painting depicts a scene from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's tragic play "Faust," specifically the episode where Marguerite, also known as Gretchen, is drawn into a witches' sabbath.

In "Marguerite au Sabbat," Dagnan-Bouveret showcases his technical skill and attention to detail. The composition captures the tension and emotional turmoil of Marguerite, who is ensnared in Faust's tragic narrative and the malevolent influence of Mephistopheles. The artist's use of color, light, and shadow contributes to the dramatic atmosphere of the scene, reflecting the supernatural and moral chaos that Marguerite experiences.

Dagnan-Bouveret was a student of the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris and was influenced by his contemporaries in the Naturalist movement, as well as by the earlier Romantic tradition. His works often bridged the gap between academic art and the emerging styles at the turn of the 20th century. "Marguerite au Sabbat" is a testament to his ability to blend a narrative approach with a naturalistic rendering of figures and settings, making the painting a significant piece in the oeuvre of the artist and a valuable work for the study of 19th-century French painting.

The painting is part of Dagnan-Bouveret's broader exploration of themes from Goethe's "Faust," which captured the imaginations of many artists during the period. It reflects the cultural fascination with the legend and its moral complexities, as well as the period's interest in the depiction of psychological states and the supernatural. "Marguerite au Sabbat" remains an important work for understanding the intersection of literature, folklore, and visual art in the context of 19th-century European culture.
