"Le Missionaire" is an oil painting by the French artist Jehan Georges Vibert, known for his genre scenes that often contain satirical elements of the Catholic clergy. The painting depicts a scene in which a missionary, identifiable by his distinct attire, is engaged in a moment of religious or educational instruction. The work is characteristic of Vibert's critical and humorous approach to religious figures, showcasing his skill in capturing human expressions and social commentary through art.

Jehan Georges Vibert (1840–1902) was a prominent figure in 19th-century French art, and his paintings were widely popular, especially among American collectors during the Gilded Age. "Le Missionaire" reflects Vibert's keen observation of society and his ability to convey a narrative through vivid imagery and character portrayal. The painting's composition, use of color, and attention to detail exemplify the artist's academic training and his departure from traditional religious art by infusing it with irony and wit.

The exact date of creation for "Le Missionaire" is not clearly documented, but it falls within Vibert's most productive period when he frequently explored ecclesiastical themes. The painting is one of several works by Vibert that critique the clergy, a subject that resonated with the anticlerical sentiment prevalent in France during parts of the 19th century.

"Le Missionaire" has been exhibited in various art galleries and has been part of private and public collections. Its provenance, critical reception, and influence on both art and social thought during Vibert's time contribute to its significance as a work of art. The painting not only serves as a testament to Vibert's artistic prowess but also offers insight into the cultural and historical context of the period in which it was created.
