Maupassant está considerado uno de los más importantes escritores de la escuela naturalista, cuyo máximo pontífice fue Émile Zola, aunque a él nunca le gustó que se le atribuyese tal militancia. Es cierto que fue un fotógrafo de su tiempo y su doctrina literaria está recogida en el prólogo que escribió para su novela Pierre et Jean, donde escribió: «La menor cosa tiene algo de desconocido. Encontrémoslo. Para descubrir un fuego que arde y un árbol en una llanura, permanezcamos frente a ese fuego y a ese árbol hasta que no se parezcan, para nosotros, a ningún otro árbol ni a ningún otro fuego». Para el historiador Rafael Llopis, Maupassant, perdido en la segunda mitad del siglo XIX, se encontraba muy lejano ya del furor del Romanticismo, fue «una figura singular, casual y solitaria». Sus cuentos son innovadores y han influido en los escritores posteriores por su prosa sencilla pero directa, sin artificios. Sus historias, variopintas, transmiten con una fidelidad absoluta la sociedad de su época. Pero lo que más lo caracteriza es lo impersonal de su narración; jamás se involucra en la historia y se manifiesta como un ser omnisciente que se limita a describir detalladamente sus observaciones. No en vano, está considerado como uno de los mayores cuentistas de la historia de la literatura.Fue tanta la influencia que ejerció sobre otros autores que llegó a ser uno de los más plagiados. Era admirado por Chéjov, León Tolstói, Horacio Quiroga y un largo etcétera.
