André-Henri Dargelas (1828 - 1906)

'André Henri Dargelas, born in Bordeaux on October 11, 1828 and died in Écouen in June 1906, is a French painter and designer of the realist movement....From 1850 on, his works enjoyed particular success in Great Britain after enthusiastic criticism from English art critic John Ruskin who appreciated Dargelas' sentimental vision of childhood.'
