"Frère et Soeur" (English: "Brother and Sister") is a painting by the French academic artist William-Adolphe Bouguereau, created in 1887. Bouguereau was renowned for his realistic portrayal of the human figure and his idealized depiction of classical themes. This particular work is a testament to his ability to capture the tender and intimate moments of everyday life.

The painting depicts a young girl holding her baby brother in her arms, embodying the themes of familial love and care. The girl is shown with a serene expression, looking down affectionately at the infant, who in turn appears calm and secure in his sister's embrace. Bouguereau's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the delicate rendering of the children's features and the soft, luminous skin tones.

"Frère et Soeur" is characteristic of Bouguereau's style, which often involved the use of smooth brushwork and a polished finish, resulting in images that were both idealized and highly realistic. His work was immensely popular during his lifetime, especially among the French bourgeoisie, and was often characterized by a sentimental and moralizing tone.

This painting is part of Bouguereau's extensive oeuvre, which includes more than 800 works. As with many of his paintings, "Frère et Soeur" reflects the artist's traditionalist approach to art, which stood in contrast to the emerging Impressionist movement of the time. Bouguereau's dedication to classical techniques and subjects made him a favorite at the Paris Salon, where he exhibited regularly and received numerous awards.

Today, "Frère et Soeur" is appreciated for its technical mastery and its poignant representation of sibling affection. It continues to be studied as an example of 19th-century academic art and is held in a private collection. The painting is also a testament to Bouguereau's enduring legacy as one of the period's most skilled and influential figurative painters.
