"Arrival of Maria de' Medici at Marseilles" (also known as "The Disembarkation at Marseilles") is an oil painting by the Flemish Baroque artist Peter Paul Rubens, completed in 1622–1625. It is one of a series of 24 canvases commissioned by Maria de' Medici, the widow of Henry IV of France and mother of Louis XIII, for the Luxembourg Palace in Paris. The series, known as the "Marie de' Medici Cycle," depicts various events from the queen's life, intended to glorify her and legitimize her regency.

The painting captures the moment of Maria de' Medici's arrival at the port of Marseilles on November 3, 1600, as part of her grand entrance into France following her marriage by proxy to Henry IV. The scene is rich in allegorical and mythological references, with the figure of Neptune symbolizing the safe guidance of the queen's ship to harbor, while Fame flies above, trumpeting Maria's arrival. The work is notable for its dynamic composition, vibrant color palette, and the skillful rendering of textures and materials, which contribute to the grandeur and theatricality characteristic of Rubens's style.

Measuring approximately 3.9 meters by 2.95 meters, "Arrival of Maria de' Medici at Marseilles" is a monumental work that exemplifies Rubens's mastery of large-scale historical painting. It is currently housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris, where it remains an important example of 17th-century European art and a testament to the political and cultural ambitions of its patron, Maria de' Medici. The cycle as a whole is considered one of Rubens's most significant and ambitious projects, reflecting both the artist's skill as a painter and his ability to navigate the complex iconography and political symbolism required by such a commission.
