"Portrait of Milliet, Second Lieutenant of the Zouaves" is an oil painting by the Dutch post-impressionist artist Vincent van Gogh, created in September 1888 during his time in Arles, France. The subject of the painting, Paul-Eugène Milliet, was a second lieutenant in the Zouaves, a regiment of light infantry in the French Army known for their distinctive North African dress and service in colonial campaigns. Van Gogh's portrait captures Milliet in his colorful Zouave uniform, reflecting the artist's fascination with exotic costumes and his ongoing exploration of color and character in portraiture.

The painting is notable for its bold use of color and energetic brushwork, which were characteristic of Van Gogh's mature style. The artist's interest in Japanese prints and the influence of the strong sunlight of the South of France can be seen in the work's vibrant palette and the treatment of light and shadow. Van Gogh's correspondence with his brother Theo provides insights into the creation of the portrait and his intentions for the piece, as well as his relationship with Milliet, who was also an art enthusiast and became a friend of Van Gogh during his stay in Arles.

"Portrait of Milliet, Second Lieutenant of the Zouaves" is considered an important work in Van Gogh's oeuvre, exemplifying his innovative approach to portraiture and his ability to capture the essence of his sitters. The painting is held in a public collection and has been exhibited in various art museums, contributing to the understanding of Van Gogh's artistic development and the cultural context of his work.
