"I accept and respect all schools of painting which have as their basis the sincere study of nature, the search for the true and the beautiful." - Wm. Bouguereau
William Bouguereau, born in France in 1825, was one of the most successful and popular painters of the second half of the 19th century. His works express perhaps better than any other's the values of classical French academic art: exquisite drawing and masterful perspective, rich coloration, dramatic yet harmonious composition, and classical and realistic subjects masterfully modeled. His technical skill is unquestionable. Yet these very qualities represent much of what the then-new school of Impressionism rebelled against, and Bouguereau's work, dismissed and scorned as "academic," fell into near obscurity for many years after his death.
In recent decades, Bouguereau has been rediscovered by art historians, curators, and buyers. Museums display his work and his paintings bring ever-higher prices at auction. Those who love this artist's work appreciate the tenderness with which he portrayed children and young women, his subtle revelation of personality and mood, his glowing colors, his lovely angels and graceful nudes, and the astonishingly realistic yet delicately transcendent quality of the images he created.
Bouguereau was a disciplined and prolific artist, known to have created over 700 finished paintings in his long lifetime. He painted, sketched, and planned tirelessly and passionately, and was also a devoted teacher. Among his many achievements, one rarely mentioned is his role in opening the French art academies to women artists. He died in 1905.

What makes our digital image collections the best available anywhere?
Our Image Gallery Viewer sets our collections apart from all others we've seen. Most other image collections are just loose files dumped in some folders on a CD. We've taken the time and care to make sure each of our thousands of images is displayed in its full beauty, with a beautiful background and with all menu options just a mouse-click away.
We've spent many months and hundreds of hours arranging and preparing these CDs, to bring you the best, most professional collections available. We know the numbers can be overwhelming, and we wanted our customers to be able to experience our collections as easily as they might go through a carefully organized library of family albums of photos.
Scrolling thumbnails are always visible for quick finding. All images are carefully categorized into albums of pictures. We use only the finest quality Taiyo Yuden CDs.

"Each day I go to my studio full of joy; in the evening when obliged to stop because of darkness I can scarcely wait for the morning to come...My work is not only a pleasure, it has become a necessity. No matter how many other things I have in my life, if I cannot give myself to my dear painting I am miserable." - Wm. Bouguereau
