"La Famille Romain," or "The Roman Family," is an oil on canvas painting by French Romantic artist Théodore Géricault, created circa1817. This artwork measures approximately 57 by 45 inches, depicting a scene of familial intimacy amidst the harsh backdrop of early 19th century Roman society.

A typical example of Géricault's earlier works, "La Famille Romaine" skilfully demonstrates his notable use of chiaroscuro to highlight the subjects against a dimly lit background. The painting portrays a peasant family; the mother nursing an infant, an elder child by her side, and a patriarch figure gazing into the distance. As well, a young girl who looks disinterested, possibly indicative of the struggles faced by working-class families in Roman society.

Géricault's attention to detail and ability to capture emotionality is evident in this painting. Each character is distinct, with their individual expressions signifying different emotions, reflecting the painter's ability to encapsulate the nuanced dynamics within family units. Despite the physically close composition of the family, their lack of interaction may suggest emotional detachment or preoccupation with survival hardships they might have been facing.

"La Famille Romaine" is currently housed in the Musée du Louvre, Paris, affirming its cultural and historical significance. This painting, like many of Géricault's works, offers valuable insights into societal conditions of the era and provides a platform for understanding the intersection of art, society, and history in Early 19th Century France.
