Spartacus (1830) is a sculpture by Denis Foyatier, at Louvre Museum, Paris, France.

The larger-than-life statue, in marble, represents Spartacus breaking his chains. Originally erected in an ensemble of eight statues for l'allée des grands hommes ("Avenue of Great Men") in the Jardin des Tuileries in Paris [France], the statue was moved to the Musée du Louvre in 1877.
