Mark William Langlois (British, 1848–1924) Oil on Canvas

About the Item

Mark William Langlois (British, 1848–1924) “Feeding the Kitten”, 1879 Oil on canvas, signed and dated A beautifully composed and sensitively rendered 19th-century English oil painting by Mark William Langlois, depicting a tranquil rural scene. Four children are gathered attentively around a saucer, watching a kitten drink milk — a charming tableau capturing the innocence and domestic warmth of Victorian life. Langlois was a Surrey-born painter known for his genre subjects, landscapes, and still lifes, exhibiting at the Royal Academy in the 1860s and 70s. His works display a finely tuned sense of light and composition, and this signed and dated 1879 example is a particularly evocative instance of his mature style. The painting is signed and dated M.W. Langlois 1879 lower left. It is presented in its original carved and gilded Victorian frame with a titled brass nameplate. Details Artist: Mark William Langlois (British, 1848–1924) Title: Feeding the Kitten Date: 1879 Medium: Oil on canvas Signature: Signed and dated lower left Frame: Original 19th-century carved and giltwood frame with title plaque Frame dimensions: 66 x 57 cm (26 x 22½ in) Condition: Very good overall; minor wear to the frame consistent with age.
