"La Buona Ventura" is a notable painting by the French Baroque artist Valentin de Boulogne (1591–1632), who was active in Italy and an important follower of Caravaggio. This work exemplifies Valentin's adeptness at capturing the chiaroscuro effect and his focus on genre scenes with a Caravaggesque naturalism. The term "buona ventura" refers to the practice of fortune-telling, and the painting depicts a moment of interaction between a fortune teller and her subjects, a theme that was popular in the genre painting of the period.

The composition typically features a group of figures engaged in the act of fortune-telling, with attention to the expressions and gestures that convey the psychological dynamics among the characters. Valentin's use of light and shadow not only enhances the drama of the scene but also serves to draw the viewer's attention to the central action and the intricate details of the subjects' attire and surroundings.

"La Buona Ventura" is often discussed in the context of Valentin de Boulogne's broader oeuvre, which is characterized by a combination of realism and theatricality, and his paintings frequently explore themes of everyday life, as well as religious and mythological subjects. His works are considered significant contributions to the Baroque movement, particularly in their reflection of Caravaggio's influence and their impact on the development of genre painting in the 17th century.

Valentin de Boulogne's "La Buona Ventura" is held in high esteem for its artistic merit and as an example of the cultural and artistic exchanges between France and Italy during the Baroque period. The painting is part of the collection of the Louvre Museum in Paris, where it continues to be studied and appreciated by scholars and the public alike.
