Le Souvenir, also known as Portrait of a Woman in a Landscape, is a captivating oil painting by the French Romantic artist Théodore Chassériau. Created in 1841, this artwork is a testament to Chassériau's unique style, which bridges the gap between the neoclassicism of his teacher Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres and the colorism and emotion of Romanticism, heralded by Eugène Delacroix.

The painting depicts a young woman, thought to be Chassériau's sister Adèle, in a lush, verdant landscape. She is seen in a contemplative pose, gazing into the distance, which adds a sense of introspection and melancholy to the piece. The use of light and shadow, along with the detailed rendering of the natural background and the subject's attire, showcases Chassériau's technical skill and his ability to capture the subtleties of human emotion and the beauty of the natural world.

Le Souvenir stands out in Chassériau's oeuvre for its intimate portrayal and emotional depth. The painting reflects the artist's interest in the inner lives of his subjects, as well as his ability to blend classical and romantic elements to create works that are both aesthetically pleasing and rich in meaning.

This painting is not only a significant work in Chassériau's body of art but also an important piece in the history of 19th-century French painting. It exemplifies the transitional period in French art, where the strictures of Neoclassicism began to give way to the more expressive and emotive qualities of Romanticism. Le Souvenir is currently held in a private collection, but it continues to be studied and admired for its beauty, complexity, and place in the history of art.
