"Jeune Bergère Debout" (English: "Young Shepherdess Standing") is an oil painting by the French academic artist William-Adolphe Bouguereau, completed in 1887. Known for his realistic genre paintings and mythological themes, Bouguereau's work often reflects a romanticized view of peasant life and classical subjects, which were popular among the bourgeoisie in the late 19th century. This particular painting is a testament to Bouguereau's skill in capturing the delicate beauty of the human form and his meticulous attention to detail.

The painting depicts a young shepherdess standing in a pastoral landscape, embodying the idyllic and serene rural life that was romanticized during the era. She is portrayed in a naturalistic setting, with a shepherd's crook in hand, suggesting her role as a caretaker of sheep. The subject is dressed in traditional peasant attire, which Bouguereau renders with exquisite detail and texture, from the soft folds of her clothing to the play of light upon her skin.

"Jeune Bergère Debout" is characterized by Bouguereau's smooth painting technique, which leaves no visible brushstrokes, and his use of chiaroscuro to achieve a sense of volume and form. The composition's tranquility and the subject's contemplative gaze lend the work a timeless quality, inviting viewers to reflect on the simplicity and beauty of rural life.

The painting is part of Bouguereau's extensive oeuvre, which includes more than 800 works. As with many of his paintings, "Jeune Bergère Debout" showcases his academic training and adherence to classical artistic principles, while also highlighting his ability to evoke emotion and narrative through portraiture. The work remains an example of Bouguereau's enduring popularity and his contribution to the French academic tradition, despite the changing artistic trends of his time.

"Jeune Bergère Debout" is held in a private collection, and it has been exhibited in various art galleries and museums, allowing the public to appreciate Bouguereau's mastery over the genre of pastoral portraiture. The painting continues to be studied and admired for its technical proficiency and its evocative portrayal of rural life in 19th-century France.
