As an artist, he was quite a disciplined person with a fruitful and rewarding career. William-Adolphe produced more than seven hundred complete paintings during his entire lifespan. The creator of "The Birth of Venus (La Naissance de Venus)," William Bouguereau adopted a systematic approach to his creations and worked upon them in stages.

Bouguereau's talent was definitely excellent, and its disgraceful that he has yet not been valued as much. In 1879, Bouguereau rewarded his artistic best to the world, one of the finest masterpieces of all times, "The Birth of Venus."
Set in a 299.7 cm x 217.8 cm (118" x 85 ¾") frame, William's painting is placed in the museum Musee d'Orsay in Paris. The compassion, with which William has rendered kids and the associated familial scenes in the painting, displays his technical proficiency and the obsession he had for classic work. He was also awarded the premier Grand Prix de Rome for "The Birth of Venus." This masterpiece portrays not the real birth of Venus from the ocean, but the hauling of Venus in a shell from the ocean to a place called Paphos in Cyprus.
