"Jacques Cathelineau (1759–1793)" is an oil on canvas painting by the French artist Anne-Louis Girodet de Roucy-Triosson, commonly known as Anne-Louis Girodet-Trioson. Completed in 1824, the painting is a posthumous portrait of Jacques Cathelineau, a celebrated leader of the Royalist counter-revolution in the Vendée during the French Revolution. Girodet, a student of the famous painter Jacques-Louis David, was known for his neoclassical style, which is evident in the dignified and idealized representation of Cathelineau.

The painting depicts Cathelineau in a heroic pose, dressed in simple attire that reflects his origins as a commoner and his role as the "Saint of Anjou" and the "First Soldier of the Vendée." The portrait is imbued with a sense of martyrdom and reverence, as Cathelineau was killed in 1793 during the War in the Vendée, a popular uprising against the revolutionary government.

Girodet's work is significant for its historical and artistic value, as it captures the romanticized vision of a key figure in the counter-revolutionary movement in France. The painting is also an example of the artist's departure from the strict neoclassicism of his teacher David, incorporating elements of romanticism that would come to define Girodet's later works.

"Jacques Cathelineau (1759–1793)" is part of the collections of the Musée d'Art et d'Histoire de Cholet in France, the town where Cathelineau was born. The painting serves as an important cultural artifact, reflecting the political tensions and the complex interplay of art and history during the post-revolutionary period in France.
