"Une vocation" (A Calling) is a painting by the French artist William-Adolphe Bouguereau, created in 1861. Bouguereau, known for his traditionalist style, was a prominent figure in French academic painting during the second half of the 19th century. His works typically feature themes of classical mythology, religious imagery, and idealized portrayals of rural life.

"Une vocation" depicts a young girl in a moment of spiritual or personal revelation, suggesting the awakening of a religious or moral calling. The subject is portrayed with a serene expression, possibly in prayer or deep contemplation, embodying the purity and innocence that are characteristic of Bouguereau's oeuvre. The painting's composition, with its soft lighting and meticulous attention to detail, exemplifies the artist's skill in capturing the delicate textures of skin and fabric, as well as his mastery of chiaroscuro to create a sense of depth and volume.

As with many of Bouguereau's works, "Une vocation" reflects the academic art standards of the time, emphasizing technical precision, harmonious composition, and a polished finish. The painting is a testament to Bouguereau's dedication to traditional techniques and his resistance to the emerging Impressionist movement, which favored looser brushwork and a more spontaneous approach to capturing light and color.

"Une vocation" is part of Bouguereau's extensive body of work that continues to be studied and appreciated for its craftsmanship and beauty. While some critics have dismissed his art as overly sentimental or lacking in innovation, Bouguereau's paintings have experienced a resurgence in popularity, with "Une vocation" standing as a fine example of his artistic legacy and the enduring appeal of academic art.
