Le Travail interrompu (English: Work Interrupted) is a painting by nineteenth-century French painter William-Adolphe Bouguereau in 1891. The painting is currently held in the Mead Art Museum in Amherst, Massachusetts.[1] The painting shows a woman seated beside an urn filled with balls of wool; Cupid is leaning across her shoulders applying perfume to her ear. The delicate luminous colours combined with the barely visible brush strokes are typical of the artist's work.[1]
