The Battle of Heliopolis (French: Bataille D'Heliopolis) is an 1837 history painting by the French artist Léon Cogniet.

The battle, which took place during the French invasion of Egypt, allowed the French to supress an uprising against their control.

[3] In the 1830s during the July Monarchy, the French monarch Louis Philippe I announced the restoration of the former Ancien Régime Palace of Versailles as a history museum.

A large number of works were commissioned featuring moments from French history.

With his depiction of Heliopolis, Cogniet was one of many leading French painters who produced works for Versailles.
