The Tomb of Francis I and Claude de France is a significant sculptural work by French Renaissance artist Pierre Bontemps. Created in the mid-16th century, this tomb is dedicated to Francis I, who was King of France from 1515 until his death in 1547, and his wife, Claude de France. The tomb is located in the Basilica of Saint-Denis, the traditional burial site for French monarchs. The artwork is renowned for its intricate and detailed sculptures that depict the reclining effigies of the king and queen, surrounded by a series of smaller figures that represent virtues and other allegorical themes.

Pierre Bontemps, known for his mastery in sculpture, crafted this tomb using primarily marble and alabaster, materials that highlight the delicacy and detail of his work. The tomb not only serves as a funerary monument but also as a piece of art that reflects the artistic and cultural values of the French Renaissance. Its design and execution illustrate the transition from Gothic to Renaissance art styles in France, characterized by a greater emphasis on realism and classical themes.

The Tomb of Francis I and Claude de France is considered an important work in the history of French art, representing both a personal commemoration of the deceased monarchs and a broader cultural artifact that offers insights into the aesthetics and ideological underpinnings of its era.
