"Modestie" (English: "Modesty") is an oil painting by the French artist William-Adolphe Bouguereau, created in 1902. Bouguereau, renowned for his realistic portrayal of the human figure, was a dominant figure in French academic painting during the late 19th century. His work often featured themes of classical mythology, religious imagery, and the idealized female form, executed with a meticulous technique that emphasized the beauty and purity of his subjects.

"Modestie" is emblematic of Bouguereau's style and subject matter, depicting a young woman in a moment of introspective modesty. The subject is portrayed with a downcast gaze, her hands gently folded in front of her, embodying the virtue of modesty through her demure posture and expression. The painting's composition, with its soft lighting and delicate use of color, enhances the ethereal quality of the figure, while the detailed rendering of her form showcases Bouguereau's skill in capturing the textures of skin and fabric.

As with many of Bouguereau's works, "Modestie" reflects the artist's adherence to traditional artistic values during a time when the art world was increasingly embracing modernism and avant-garde movements. Despite the shifts in artistic trends, Bouguereau's paintings continued to be highly popular among private collectors and the French bourgeoisie, who appreciated his classical approach and virtuosic technique.

Today, "Modestie" is considered an example of Bouguereau's late-career mastery of the academic style, and it remains a testament to his enduring appeal as a painter of human beauty and classical themes. The painting is held in a private collection, and it continues to be admired for its technical excellence and its evocative portrayal of timeless virtues.
