''Madame X'' or ''Portrait of Madame X'' is an oil painting by American artist John Singer Sargent, created in 1884. One of Sargent's best-known works, it depicts Virginie Amélie Avegno Gautreau, an American socialite and wife of a French banker, who became notorious in Parisian high society for her beauty and rumored infidelities. The painting is a study in the effects of subtle tone, color, and form, showcasing Sargent's skill in portraiture with an almost sculptural rendering of Madame Gautreau's figure against a dark background.

The work's original title was ''Portrait de Mme ***'', as Sargent chose to keep the subject's identity anonymous at the 1884 Paris Salon, where it was first exhibited. However, the sitter's identity was quickly recognized, and the painting caused a scandal due to its perceived sensuality and unconventional depiction of a high-society woman. Notably, the right strap of Gautreau's dress was painted as fallen on her arm, which was considered provocative and in stark contrast to the more conservative societal norms of the time.

The public's negative reaction took a toll on both Gautreau's reputation and Sargent's career in Paris, prompting him to relocate to London. Sargent later repainted the strap to its proper place to mitigate the controversy. Despite its initial reception, ''Madame X'' has since been recognized as a masterpiece of Sargent's oeuvre and a defining work of his career, celebrated for its elegance, chic modernity, and the artist's masterful handling of the medium.

Today, ''Madame X'' is held in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, where it continues to be a subject of admiration and study for its aesthetic qualities and its place in the history of portrait painting. The painting remains an enduring symbol of Sargent's artistic legacy and a testament to the complex interplay of social mores, beauty, and representation in the late 19th century.
