L'Œuvre au noir est un roman de 1968 de l'écrivaine belgo-française Marguerite Yourcenar. Son récit est centré sur la vie et la mort de Zénon, médecin, philosophe, scientifique et alchimiste né à Bruges à l'époque de la Renaissance. Le livre a été publié en France en 1968 et a immédiatement rencontré un intérêt populaire ainsi que des critiques élogieuses, obtenant le Prix Femina à l'unanimité l'année de sa publication. Le cinéaste belge André Delvaux l'a adapté au cinéma en 1988.
