About the Item
The present painting comes from the hand of the painter Walther Firle. It was created circa 1884 after a stay of the artist in Holland. In The Hague he saw a group of orphan girls whose pious singing charmed and inspired him to draw. Back in Munich, Firle created the first large works of his sketches and studies. Shown is a young girl in black dresses with white scarves, aprons and open hair, singing here in a room of music sheets, one of them playing the piano. The scene is bathed in a soft morning light shining through the large windows.

19th Century Oil On Mahogany Board by William M Hensley (British 1819-1883)
Located in Chicago, IL
This 19th-century oil on mahogany board titled 'The Cut Finger' by William Hemsley, R.B.A., depicts a familial pairing in a cottage home. The girl tends to the eponymous cut with a white cloth pressed on the boy's finger. A dim light is cast from the window to the left, illuminating a cut loaf of bread, a knife, and simple stoneware to set the scene. The girl sits in a wooden chair wearing a salmon-colored blouse, while the young boy is dressed in a golden overshirt.
William Hemsley, R.B.A., (1819-1906) was a prolific draughtsman and painter of genre scenes depicting English provincial life. Hemsley’s scenes of everyday reality, which were usually painted on a small scale, follow the gentle tradition of Webster and F. D. Hardy. He was, like them, fond of painting children at play. Many of his works depicted rustic domestic scenes, leading to him being described as "pre-eminently the painter of cottage life". He was also a member of the Society of British Artists. He exhibited frequently in London, particularly at the Royal Academy and the Suffolk Street Gallery.
This gentle painting faithfully represents a moment between two people caring for one another. Hemsley painted in a style reminiscent of earlier golden-age Dutch genre painting, using light and color in a vibrant but elegant manner—signature on the lower left-hand corner.
In the 19th century, it was common to paint on wood due to its durability, smooth surface, and long-standing tradition. Wood panels were preferred for their sturdiness and versatility, suitable for detailed artworks and various shapes and sizes. While wood was popular, especially for smaller works, canvas started gaining popularity later in the century for its lighter weight and ease of use.
This rustic genre scene resides in an ornate Louis XIV Régence style convex frame with foliate shell cartouche corners, strap work, and c-scrolls on a cross-hatched ground with white pigment dispersed throughout. In the early 18th century the Louis XIV styles blended into the Régence frame style (c.1715-1723) which placed greater emphasis on the corners and centers. The full Regency style was both opulent and delicate, with the order and linearity of this period giving way to the swirling delicacy of the Rococo.
This painting would be a wonderful addition to a home office, entryway, or library...

19th Century French Oil on Board Painting "Saying Grace" in Carved Gilt Frame
By Jean Baptiste Simeon Chardin
Located in Dallas, TX
This beautiful antique oil on board painting was created in France circa 1830. Set inside its original gold leaf frame, the painting shows a humble peasant mother feeding breakfast to her two children after saying grace in the manner of Chardin. The interior of the home is simple, austere and calm. The painting is in excellent condition, commensurate with age and use with wonderful colors. The composition here is meticulous, and the stability created by the triangular structure of the three figures also adds to the tranquility and balance of the scene.
