L'Accordée de Village (The Village Bride) is a significant painting by the French artist Jean-Baptiste Greuze, completed in 1761. This work is often cited as a prime example of Greuze's contribution to the genre painting, a form that depicts scenes from everyday life with an emphasis on moral or sentimental messages. The painting is housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France, underscoring its importance in the canon of French art history.

The artwork portrays a moment of familial and communal bonding, centered around the act of a father giving his daughter's hand in marriage. The scene is imbued with a rich display of emotions, from the tender pride of the father to the modesty and virtue of the bride, encapsulating the moral virtues esteemed during the 18th century. Greuze's skill in rendering the nuanced expressions of his subjects contributes to the narrative depth of the painting, making it a compelling study of human emotion and social customs.

L'Accordée de Village is notable for its detailed depiction of rural life, offering insights into the customs and values of the period. Greuze's work is characterized by a focus on the moralizing aspects of domestic life, and this painting is a quintessential example of his approach. It has been interpreted as an illustration of the social contract and the importance of marital union not only to the individuals involved but also to the community at large.

The painting's reception at the time of its unveiling was highly positive, with Denis Diderot, the French philosopher, art critic, and writer, praising its moral and aesthetic qualities. Diderot's endorsement helped solidify Greuze's reputation as a leading painter of his generation. Today, L'Accordée de Village continues to be studied for its artistic and historical significance, offering insights into 18th-century French society, the genre painting tradition, and Greuze's oeuvre.
