Salome is an Art Nouveau lithograph created by the French artist Paul Émile Berthon (1872–1909). The piece is part of Berthon's body of work that reflects the influence of his contemporaries, such as Alphonse Mucha, and the general artistic movement at the turn of the 20th century that emphasized stylized natural forms, sinuous lines, and a focus on decorative pattern. The lithograph portrays the biblical figure Salome, who is often depicted in art and literature due to her infamous role in the story of the beheading of John the Baptist.

In Berthon's rendition, Salome is typically depicted with an elaborate headdress and ornate clothing, embodying the exotic and sensuous qualities that were frequently associated with her character in fin-de-siècle art. The work is characterized by its elegant lines, harmonious color palette, and the integration of text and image, which was a common feature in Art Nouveau posters and prints of the time. Salome's pose and expression convey a sense of allure and mystery, capturing the viewer's attention and inviting them to contemplate the narrative and symbolism behind the image.

The lithograph is a testament to Berthon's skill in printmaking and his ability to translate the aesthetics of Art Nouveau into a compelling visual narrative. As with many of his pieces, Salome demonstrates the artist's fascination with feminine beauty and the use of floral and organic motifs, which serve to frame and enhance the central figure. The work is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its cultural relevance, as it reflects the period's fascination with biblical and mythological subjects, interpreted through the lens of contemporary artistic trends.

Salome by Paul Émile Berthon remains an important example of Art Nouveau graphic art and continues to be studied and appreciated for its stylistic contributions to the movement and its encapsulation of the era's zeitgeist.
