More about this artwork

"Convoitise," a captivating masterpiece by William Bouguereau, portrays a serene and tender scene rich in emotion and narrative. Painted with exquisite detail, Bouguereau's skill in capturing human emotion and realism shines in this artwork.The painting depicts a young woman in traditional attire carrying a child on her hip. The woman, poised and graceful, looks into the distance while the child gazes affectionately at her with a soft, trusting expression. The backdrop features a lush landscape, hinting at a serene rural setting with distant mountains partially veiled by the gentle haze of the atmosphere.Adding to the narrative is a calmly curious goat standing beside them, possibly attracted by the small bunch of grapes the child playfully holds. The animal's presence introduces a subtle sense of liveliness and rural tranquility to the scene, suggesting a peaceful coexistence with nature."Convoitise" not only showcases Bouguereau's mastery of form and color but also evokes a narrative that resonates with themes of maternal love, childhood innocence, and harmony with nature.

William-Adolphe Bouguereau was a French academic painter. In paintings of the realistic genre, he used mythological themes, modern interpretation of classical themes, emphasizing the female human body. During his lifetime, he achieved great popularity in France and the United States, was awarded many official honors, and sold his works for top prices. In the early twentieth century, Bouguereau and his art disappeared from the public eye, partly due to its changing artistic tastes. A resurgence of interest in figurative painting in the 1980s led to a rediscovery of Bouguereau and his work. He completed 822 known paintings, but the whereabouts of many are still unknown.
