achevé

Achevé is a French adjective that translates to completed, finished, or accomplished in English. It is derived from the past participle of the verb "achever," meaning to complete or to finish. The term is used to describe something that has reached its final stage or has been brought to a successful conclusion.

In art and architecture, "achevé" can refer to a work that is fully realized and perfected, demonstrating mastery of technique and concept. A painting, sculpture, or building described as achevé is considered to be in its final, intended state. The term implies a sense of completeness and polish.

In a more general sense, "achevé" can apply to any task, project, or goal that has been successfully brought to an end. For example, a sentence like "Le projet est achevé" means "The project is completed." It signifies the cessation of effort and the attainment of the desired outcome. The word emphasizes the finality and perfection of the finished product or state.
