"Orphée" (Orpheus) is a symbolist painting by French artist Pierre Amédée Marcel-Béronneau, created in 1897. The artwork is a representation of the ancient Greek mythological figure Orpheus, known for his extraordinary musical abilities that could charm all living things and even inanimate objects. Marcel-Béronneau's depiction is steeped in the Symbolist movement, which sought to express the idea that behind the visible world there is a more profound, spiritual reality that could be accessed through symbols, myths, and dreams.

In "Orphée," Marcel-Béronneau portrays the moment from the myth where Orpheus, stricken with grief after the death of his wife Eurydice, is granted permission by Hades to bring her back from the underworld on the condition that he does not look back at her until they reach the surface. The painting captures the emotional intensity and the mystical atmosphere of the tale, with Orpheus shown in a moment of deep contemplation or sorrow, possibly foreshadowing the tragic outcome of his journey.

The artwork is characterized by its rich, dark tones and the use of light to highlight the figure of Orpheus, which is a common technique in Symbolist art to evoke a sense of otherworldliness. Marcel-Béronneau's work is noted for its intricate detail and emotional depth, which align with the Symbolist movement's emphasis on personal and esoteric experiences.

"Orphée" is an example of Marcel-Béronneau's engagement with mythological themes and his contribution to the Symbolist movement at the turn of the 20th century. The painting is significant for its artistic representation of the Orpheus myth and for its embodiment of the ideals of Symbolism, reflecting the artist's exploration of the mystical and the transcendent through visual art.
