"Jeune Maure Tenant Son Cheval Par La Bride" (English: "Young Moor Holding His Horse by the Bridle") is an oil painting by the French Romantic artist Théodore Chassériau (1819–1856). Created in 1845, this work is one of Chassériau's Orientalist pieces, reflecting the fascination with Middle Eastern and North African cultures that was prevalent among European artists in the 19th century. The painting depicts a young Moorish boy standing beside a horse, holding the animal's bridle, set against a landscape that evokes the exoticism of the Orient.

Chassériau, a student of the famed painter Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, was known for his masterful combination of the academic Neoclassical style of his teacher and the more expressive and coloristic Romantic style, as seen in the works of Eugène Delacroix. "Jeune Maure Tenant Son Cheval Par La Bride" showcases Chassériau's skill in rendering the human figure with classical grace while also capturing the vibrant energy and color of the scene.

The painting is significant for its contribution to the Orientalist genre, which often sought to represent the East as a place of beauty, mystery, and sensuality. Chassériau's travels to Algeria in 1846, shortly after completing this work, further influenced his artistic output, leading to a series of paintings that depict North African subjects and landscapes.

"Jeune Maure Tenant Son Cheval Par La Bride" is held in a private collection, and it has been exhibited in various retrospectives of Chassériau's work, including the major exhibition at the Louvre in 2002, which later traveled to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The painting is often discussed in the context of Chassériau's oeuvre as an example of his early engagement with Orientalist themes and his exceptional ability to blend different artistic movements into a coherent and distinctive style.
