French 1890s Oil on Canvas Painting Featuring Playing Kittens in Giltwood Frame

A French oil on canvas animal painting signed Laroche from the late 19th century, framed in giltwood. This charming artwork features two delightful kittens playfully engaged with a stringed cork against a dark background that beautifully accentuates their coats. The scene centers around the young kittens, with a red and white one at the forefront, its striking blue eye expressing sheer outrage at the audacious cork bouncing around. Meanwhile, the grey and white sibling, with darker eyes, peeks out shyly from behind, adding to the painting’s whimsical charm. The simplicity and tenderness of the moment are enhanced by the delicately carved palmette frame, making this French oil painting from the 1890s an ideal choice for any wall. The signature, located in the lower left, further authenticates the piece, inviting viewers to appreciate both its artistic merit and its endearing subject matter. This painting not only captures a playful interaction but also infuses any space with warmth and character.
