"The Meeting of Saint Germain and Saint Geneviève" (also known as "The Meeting of Saints Germain and Geneviève") is a notable fresco by the French painter Pierre-Cécile Puvis de Chavannes, created in 1874. As one of the most prominent muralists of the 19th century, Puvis de Chavannes was renowned for his classical and allegorical works that often conveyed a sense of tranquility and timelessness. This particular fresco is part of a series of murals commissioned for the Panthéon in Paris, a mausoleum that contains the remains of distinguished French citizens.

The fresco depicts a legendary meeting between Saint Germain, the Bishop of Paris, and Saint Geneviève, the patron saint of the city, who is known for her role in defending Paris against Attila the Hun. The artwork is imbued with a sense of serene grandeur, characteristic of Puvis de Chavannes' style, and reflects the artist's interest in the early Christian history of France.

Puvis de Chavannes' technique involved the use of muted colors and simplified forms, which lent his murals a timeless, universal quality. His work on the Panthéon murals, including "The Meeting of Saint Germain and Saint Geneviève," was instrumental in reviving the art of mural painting in France and influenced a generation of artists, including the Symbolists and early Modernists.

"The Meeting of Saint Germain and Saint Geneviève" is celebrated for its harmonious composition and the way it captures the spiritual significance of the encounter between the two saints. It remains an important example of Puvis de Chavannes' contribution to French art and his mastery of the mural form.
