Felix Schlesinger (1833 Hamburg – 1910 Munich) The Little Friend A sensitive children’s scene in the intimate small format of the genre painter Schlesinger, whose special charm lies in the expression of the tender, childlike relationship between humans and animals. The painting is characterized by finely nuanced coloring and a subtle rendering of texture. Children interacting playfully, affectionately, or teasingly with small animals—especially rabbits—form a recurring and central motif in the artist’s work and became his specialty. Schlesinger studied at the Düsseldorf Academy under Rudolf Jordan and furthered his education on study trips to Antwerp and Paris. In 1862–63, he settled in Munich and, until 1908, submitted depictions of rural life to national and international exhibitions. Oil on panel. Signed lower left; 23.5 cm x 18 cm. Framed. Oil on panel. Signed.
