"Tête de jeune Algérienne juive" (Head of a Young Jewish Algerian Girl) is a notable artwork by the French Romantic painter Théodore Chassériau (1819–1856). Created in the mid-19th century, this work exemplifies Chassériau's fascination with Orientalism—a trend among European artists that involved depicting scenes, people, and landscapes of the East, often with an emphasis on exoticism and sensuality.

Chassériau, who was born in the Caribbean and moved to Paris at a young age, studied under the renowned painter Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres before developing his unique style that blended the academic classicism of his teacher with the more expressive and coloristic Romanticism of Eugène Delacroix. His travels to North Africa, particularly to Algeria in 1846, had a profound impact on his art, leading to a series of works that reflect his encounters with the people and culture of the region.

"Tête de jeune Algérienne juive" is a testament to Chassériau's skill in portraiture and his ability to capture the subtleties of human expression. The painting is characterized by its delicate rendering of the young woman's features, the softness of her gaze, and the intricate details of her attire, all of which convey a sense of individuality and cultural specificity. The work is imbued with a sense of intimacy and immediacy, inviting viewers to engage with the subject on a personal level.

The painting is also significant for its contribution to the Orientalist discourse of the time. While Orientalist works often perpetuated stereotypes and served colonialist narratives, Chassériau's portraits, including "Tête de jeune Algérienne juive," are noted for their more nuanced and empathetic portrayal of individuals from the region. His approach provides insight into the complex dynamics of cultural representation and the ways in which artists navigate the intersection of art, politics, and identity.

Today, "Tête de jeune Algérienne juive" is recognized as an important work within Chassériau's oeuvre and the broader context of 19th-century French art. It continues to be studied for its aesthetic qualities, as well as its role in the historical understanding of Orientalism and cross-cultural encounters in art. The painting is held in a public collection, allowing it to be accessed and appreciated by a wide audience, and it contributes to ongoing discussions about the legacy of Orientalist art and its place in contemporary society.
