La Belle captive is the title of a number of Magritte paintings[1]. The title of these paintings is translated in English as The Beautiful Captive or The Fair Captive. The series includes four seascapes and two landscapes that he painted between 1931 and 1967. All portray a painting on an easel; the easel painting in each case depicts—in exactly the same proportions, what is seen behind the painting.
