"La petite tricoteuse" (English: "The Little Knitter") is an oil painting by the 19th-century French academic artist William-Adolphe Bouguereau. Created in 1882, the work is a quintessential example of Bouguereau's highly polished style and his focus on genre subjects—scenes of everyday life imbued with a sense of idealized beauty. The painting depicts a young girl engaged in the act of knitting, a common domestic task of the period. She is portrayed with a serene expression, embodying the virtues of diligence and innocence that were often celebrated in the art of the era.

Bouguereau's skill in rendering the textures of fabric and flesh, as well as his attention to detail, is evident in this work. The softness of the young girl's skin contrasts with the intricacy of her clothing and the wool of her knitting, highlighting the artist's mastery of technique. "La petite tricoteuse" is representative of Bouguereau's contributions to the genre of academic painting, which emphasized classical themes and techniques during a time when the art world was beginning to embrace Impressionism and other modern movements.

The painting is part of a larger body of Bouguereau's work that celebrates the innocence and beauty of youth, themes that garnered him significant popularity during his lifetime. "La petite tricoteuse" has been exhibited in various art galleries and has a history of ownership that reflects its status as a collectible piece of fine art. As with many of Bouguereau's paintings, it continues to be studied and appreciated for its technical proficiency and its embodiment of the academic aesthetic that dominated French art during the late 19th century.
