"The Birth of Venus" (French: "La Naissance de Vénus") is an iconic painting by the French artist William-Adolphe Bouguereau, completed in 1879. The artwork is a quintessential example of 19th-century academic art, showcasing Bouguereau's mastery of the female form and his adherence to classical standards of beauty. The painting depicts the mythological scene of Venus, the Roman goddess of love and beauty, emerging from the sea as a fully grown woman, as described in classical literature, including the works of Hesiod and Homer.

Bouguereau's interpretation of this timeless subject is rendered with a polished technique that emphasizes the smoothness of flesh and the ethereal quality of the goddess's presence. The composition is carefully constructed, with Venus at the center, standing on a shell, and being greeted by putti and nymphs, which adds to the sense of her divinity and the celebration of her creation. The use of light, color, and texture in the painting highlights Venus's purity and the sensuality of her form, which is a hallmark of Bouguereau's style.

Measuring 300 cm × 215 cm (118.1 in × 84.6 in), "The Birth of Venus" is a large-scale work that was well-received in its time for its technical proficiency and beauty. It is often compared to Sandro Botticelli's painting of the same name, although Bouguereau's version is distinct in its academic realism and reflective of the tastes of the French bourgeoisie during the late 19th century. The painting is part of the permanent collection of the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, where it continues to be admired for its aesthetic qualities and as an example of the artistic ideals of the period.
