"Le Menuet de la Mariée" is an 18th-century print by French artist Philibert-Louis Debucourt (1755–1832). Debucourt, renowned for his genre scenes and for being a pioneer in the development of the color print in France, captured the elegance and frivolity of Parisian society during the late 18th century through his works. "Le Menuet de la Mariée," which translates to "The Bride's Minuet," is a fine example of his detailed and vibrant portrayal of contemporary social customs.

The print depicts a wedding scene set in a luxurious interior, where the bride, adorned in fashionable attire, is engaged in the minuet, a popular courtly dance of the time. The composition is carefully constructed to showcase the opulence of the period, with attention to the intricate details of the costumes and the interior decor. The artwork reflects the Rococo style, characterized by ornate elegance and a light-hearted romanticism, which was prevalent in the decorative arts and architecture during Debucourt's lifetime.

Philibert-Louis Debucourt's work is significant for its contribution to the color printing technique known as aquatint, which allowed for a more painterly quality in prints. "Le Menuet de la Mariée" exemplifies his mastery of this medium, demonstrating his ability to achieve a rich palette and subtle gradations of tone, which was revolutionary at the time.

The print not only serves as a visual document of the social practices and fashions of the French aristocracy before the Revolution but also stands as a testament to the artistic innovations of the period. Debucourt's "Le Menuet de la Mariée" remains an important work for scholars studying the intersection of art, culture, and technology in pre-revolutionary France.
