"Madame Récamier" is an 1800 portrait by the French painter Jacques-Louis David, depicting Juliette Récamier, a renowned socialite and Parisian salonnière of the era. The painting is celebrated for its neoclassical style and is one of David's most famous works, showcasing his mastery of form and his ability to capture the elegance and grace of his subjects.

Juliette Récamier, born Jeanne Françoise Julie Adélaïde Bernard, was a prominent figure in French society and is often remembered for her beauty and her influential salon, which was frequented by leading political figures and intellectuals of the time. David's portrait captures her reclining on a Directoire style sofa in a simple, yet refined, white empire line dress, which reflects the contemporary fashion and emphasizes her status and taste.

The painting is notable for its unfinished state, as David stopped working on it, possibly due to a disagreement with Madame Récamier. Despite this, or perhaps because of it, the work exudes a sense of immediacy and intimacy. The use of light and shadow, the careful arrangement of the composition, and the psychological depth with which David imbues his sitter's visage, all contribute to the painting's enduring appeal.

"Madame Récamier" has been widely analyzed and discussed by art historians and is often compared to another of David's works, "Portrait of Madame de Verninac," as both feature prominent women of the Consulate period. The painting has had a significant impact on the portrayal of women in art and continues to be a subject of scholarly interest for its aesthetic qualities and historical context.

Today, "Madame Récamier" is housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris, where it remains a testament to David's skill as a portraitist and to the cultural vibrancy of the turn-of-the-century France.
