Bear Surprise

is a watercolor painting by American painter/musician John Lurie, the style of which has been described as primitivist and naïve.

[1] The painting depicts a couple having sex in a meadow, with a bear standing in front of them, with forepaws in a distinctive position.

The painting features in a popular internet meme in Russian online culture.

It has been described by Victor Sonkin in The Moscow Times as having "gained vast popularity with the speed of an avalanche".

[1] Its popularity in Runet led to the bear's speech bubble being changed from "Surprise" to "Preved", misspelling of the Russian word privet ("hello" or "hi").
