"The Arrival of Marie de Medici in Marseille" is a monumental oil painting by the Flemish Baroque artist Peter Paul Rubens, created as part of a series of twenty-four canvases commissioned by Marie de Medici, the Queen Mother of France, for the Luxembourg Palace in Paris. Completed in 1622-1625, this painting is one of the most significant in the series known as the "Marie de Medici Cycle," which depicts various events from the queen's life.

The painting illustrates the historical moment of Marie de Medici's arrival at the port of Marseille on November 3, 1600, as part of her journey to France to marry King Henry IV. In this grandiose and idealized representation, Rubens combines elements of mythology with historical narrative to convey the significance and splendor of the queen's arrival. The scene is filled with allegorical figures, including Neptune and the Nereids, which emphasize the queen's association with divine favor and prosperity.

Measuring approximately 394 cm × 295 cm (155 in × 116 in), the painting is characterized by Rubens' dynamic composition, vibrant color palette, and his skillful rendering of textures and movement. The artwork captures the viewer's attention with its dramatic use of light and shadow, as well as the intricate details of the figures' expressions and garments.

"The Arrival of Marie de Medici in Marseille" is celebrated for its artistic mastery and as a historical document of the political propaganda of the time. It is housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris, where it continues to be studied and admired for its rich iconography and as a prime example of Rubens' contribution to the Baroque style. The painting stands as a testament to the artist's ability to fuse the grandeur of history with the power of myth, creating a narrative that both glorifies its subject and captivates its audience.
