"Le Meurtre" (The Murder) is a painting by the French Post-Impressionist artist Paul Cézanne, created circa 1867-1868. This early work of Cézanne is significant as it reflects the artist's initial foray into the exploration of human psychology and drama through the medium of paint, a theme that diverges from his later, more well-known focus on still lifes, landscapes, and studies of bathers.

The painting depicts a violent scene of a murder, with two assailants attacking a victim. The composition is dramatic and filled with a sense of movement and chaos, which is conveyed through Cézanne's use of dark colors and aggressive brushstrokes. This work is often interpreted as a reflection of the social and political turmoil of the era, as well as an expression of the artist's personal anxieties and emotions.

"Le Meurtre" is considered an important piece in the study of Cézanne's development as an artist. It showcases his departure from the conventions of classical painting and the influence of Romanticism on his early work. The painting also provides insight into the thematic and stylistic evolution that Cézanne would undergo in his subsequent career, as he moved towards a more structured and analytical approach to form and color that would eventually lay the groundwork for Cubism and modern art.

The painting is part of the collection at the Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where it continues to be studied and appreciated for its historical significance and its role in the trajectory of Cézanne's artistic journey.
