"A Peri at the Gates of Paradise" (French: Une Péri aux portes du Paradis) is an 1865 painting by the French Symbolist artist Gustave Moreau. The work is a watercolor, which showcases Moreau's fascination with the exotic and the fantastic, themes that are recurrent in his oeuvre. The painting depicts a peri, a mythological creature from Persian folklore often described as a winged fairy or a fallen angel, seeking redemption and entry into paradise.

In this work, Moreau's peri is presented at the moment of her supplication, embodying the Symbolist movement's interest in the spiritual and the otherworldly. The peri is often interpreted as a symbol of the soul's quest for transcendence or the artist's pursuit of ideal beauty. Moreau's intricate and detailed style, characterized by his use of vibrant colors and elaborate ornamentation, is evident in this painting, which is rich in symbolic elements and evocative of a dream-like atmosphere.

"A Peri at the Gates of Paradise" reflects Moreau's commitment to a personal and highly imaginative form of artistic expression, which sought to provide an alternative to the naturalism and realism that dominated the art of his time. The painting is part of Moreau's larger body of work that delves into mythological and biblical subjects, rendered with a unique blend of Romanticism and Symbolism.

This painting is one of the many examples of Moreau's influence on the development of Symbolism in the late 19th century, and it continues to be studied for its complex interplay of themes, its technical mastery, and its place within the broader context of Moreau's artistic legacy. "A Peri at the Gates of Paradise" is held in a private collection, and it has been exhibited in various art institutions, contributing to the ongoing appreciation and understanding of Moreau's contribution to art history.
