Les Premiers Pas, translated as "The First Steps," is a notable painting by the French artist Adolphe Joseph Thomas Monticelli, who was active during the 19th century. Monticelli, born in 1824 in Marseille, is renowned for his vibrant and textured style, which often drew comparisons to the works of the Impressionists, despite his career predating the movement. His work is characterized by a rich use of color and a distinctive impasto technique, where paint is laid on thickly to create a textured surface.

Les Premiers Pas exemplifies Monticelli's unique approach to painting, capturing a tender and intimate moment of early childhood. The painting typically depicts a young child taking their first steps, often supported by a parent or guardian, set against a lush, impressionistic background. The use of light and shadow, combined with Monticelli's signature brushwork, brings a sense of depth and emotion to the scene, highlighting the significance of this milestone in a child's life.

Monticelli's influence extended beyond his lifetime, impacting notable artists such as Vincent van Gogh, who admired Monticelli's bold use of color and expressive technique. Despite facing criticism during his career for his unconventional style, Monticelli's work gained recognition posthumously, and he is now celebrated for his contributions to the development of modern art.

Les Premiers Pas remains an important piece within Monticelli's oeuvre, reflecting his ability to convey profound human experiences through his innovative artistic methods. The painting is held in various private collections and museums, where it continues to be appreciated for its emotional depth and technical mastery.
