Esquisse Pour Le Portrait De L'impératrice Joséphine À La Malmaison, translated as "Sketch for the Portrait of Empress Joséphine at Malmaison," is a notable work by the French artist Pierre-Paul Prud'hon. Prud'hon, born in 1758 and active during the late 18th and early 19th centuries, is renowned for his contributions to the Neoclassical and Romantic movements in art. His works are characterized by their delicate rendering, emotional depth, and often, a sense of ethereal beauty.

This particular sketch is a preparatory work for a larger, more finished portrait of Empress Joséphine, the first wife of Napoleon Bonaparte and the first Empress of the French. Joséphine de Beauharnais, as she was known before her marriage to Napoleon, was a prominent figure in French society and an influential patron of the arts. The Château de Malmaison, located near Paris, was her private residence and a significant cultural hub during her time.

Prud'hon's sketch captures the elegance and grace of Joséphine, reflecting her status and the refined taste of the Napoleonic court. The artist's use of soft lines and subtle shading in the sketch demonstrates his mastery of drawing and his ability to convey the sitter's personality and poise with minimal yet expressive strokes. This work not only serves as a testament to Prud'hon's skill but also provides insight into the artistic process of portraiture during this period.

The sketch is valued not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical significance, offering a glimpse into the life and image of one of the most prominent women of the Napoleonic era. It remains an important piece within Prud'hon's oeuvre and a cherished artifact that continues to be studied and admired by art historians and enthusiasts alike.
