Agnes McIntyre Croxford
Friends, Kittens and Puppies Painting by British Artist Agnes McIntyre Croxford

c.1900

About the Item

"Friends" by Agnes McIntyre Croxford is a testament to the artist's ability to capture the delicate balance of harmony and curiosity in the animal kingdom. This painting presents two small dogs and three cats seated together, all gazing questioningly at a small, lifeless mouse, evoking a narrative that is as endearing as it is intriguing. The felines are adorned with dainty pink ribbons around their necks, adding a touch of elegance to their poised demeanor. Against a backdrop of a muted gray wall, the composition is brought to life with sprigs of what appear to be cherry blossoms in full bloom, infusing the scene with a sense of renewal and life that contrasts with the still mouse. Having circulated through the halls of prestigious auction houses like Sotheby's and Christie's, "Friends" carries with it a history of appreciation and a legacy of value. This piece is not just a painting; it is a slice of history, a moment of innocence, and a celebration of the quaintness that Croxford so beautifully encapsulated in her work.
