"Pierrot Gourmand" is a notable painting by the French artist Charles Monginot (1825–1900), created in 1883. The artwork depicts a character known as Pierrot, a stock figure in the French pantomime tradition, often characterized by his naive and forlorn persona, dressed in a white, loose-fitting costume. In Monginot's interpretation, Pierrot is portrayed indulging in a moment of sweet temptation, as suggested by the title "Gourmand," which translates to "glutton" or "greedy eater" in English.

The painting is a fine example of the 19th-century French Realist movement, which sought to depict subjects truthfully and without artificiality, avoiding the idealization found in the Neoclassical or Romantic styles that preceded it. Monginot's work is characterized by its attention to detail, nuanced use of light and shadow, and the lifelike representation of textures and materials.

"Pierrot Gourmand" captures the essence of the character's melancholic humor, as Pierrot is often portrayed in situations where his pursuit of pleasure is met with a mix of innocence and folly. The painting's composition and the figure's expressive demeanor invite viewers to reflect on themes of desire, indulgence, and the simple joys of life.

As a cultural artifact, the painting also contributes to the iconography of Pierrot in art, reflecting the enduring fascination with commedia dell'arte characters in European art. Charles Monginot's "Pierrot Gourmand" remains an important work for scholars studying the intersections of fine art, theater, and cultural history in the late 19th century.
