"The Surprised Nymph" (French: "La Nymphe surprise") is a notable painting by the French artist Édouard Manet, created in 1859-1861. As one of the early works of Manet, who is often regarded as a pivotal figure in the transition from Realism to Impressionism, this painting showcases his skill in depicting the human figure and his willingness to confront traditional artistic mores with modern sensibilities.

The painting features a life-sized depiction of a nude nymph, caught in a moment of surprise as she bathes in a secluded spot. The subject's direct gaze and the candid portrayal of her nudity were considered audacious at the time, challenging the norms of academic art and the conservative tastes of the Parisian salon-goers. Manet's brushwork in "The Surprised Nymph" is characteristic of his style, with loose, fluid strokes that would later become a hallmark of Impressionist technique, although he never fully identified with that movement.

Measuring 106.3 cm × 84.5 cm, the artwork is executed in oil on canvas. It is currently housed in the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, France, where it continues to attract scholarly attention and public interest. The painting is significant not only for its aesthetic qualities but also for its role in the development of modern art, as it exemplifies Manet's challenge to the established art scene of his time and his influence on subsequent generations of artists.
