Notre-Dame des Anges (Our Lady of the Angels) is a celebrated 19th-century painting by the French academic artist William-Adolphe Bouguereau. Created in 1889, the work is a quintessential example of Bouguereau's highly polished style and his devotion to classical themes imbued with Christian iconography. The painting depicts the Virgin Mary cradling the infant Jesus, surrounded by a host of angels in a serene, heavenly tableau that reflects the artist's mastery of form and his ability to convey spiritual themes through idealized human figures.

Bouguereau, known for his realistic genre paintings and mythological themes, often focused on the female form, using his skill to capture the delicate interplay of light and shadow on skin. In Notre-Dame des Anges, he elevates this technical prowess to a subject of religious reverence, presenting the figures with a sense of grace and divinity that was well-received by the art patrons of his time. The painting's composition, with the Virgin at its center, exudes a sense of balance and harmony, while the angels' gentle, protective presence around the mother and child adds to the overall sense of peace and sanctity.

The work is emblematic of the broader cultural and artistic movements of the late 19th century, where academic art, with its emphasis on technical skill and classical aesthetics, was at its zenith. Bouguereau's adherence to traditional techniques and his opposition to the emerging Impressionist movement are evident in the painting's clear lines, smooth brushwork, and meticulous attention to anatomical accuracy.

Notre-Dame des Anges not only showcases Bouguereau's technical skill and artistic sensibilities but also serves as a reflection of the era's societal values and the role of religious art in public and private life. The painting remains an important piece in the oeuvre of Bouguereau and continues to be studied and admired for its beauty and its representation of 19th-century academic art.
