At Play
At Play by French Painter Emile Vernon (1872 – 1919); a bha gu sònraichte a ’peantadh dathan-uisge, leis a ’phrìomh chuspair aige bha boireannaich is clann ann an suidheachaidhean dùthchail soilleir agus dathach. Rinn e trèanadh fo Uilleam Bouguereau agus Auguste Trouphème ann an Sgoil nan Ealain Fine ann am Paris san Fhraing.
This is a beautiful and heart warming classic vintage painting of a young lady sitting at a small table with a white bonnet with ruffles along its edge and black dots and circles along its perimeter with off pink ribbon straps on her head and wearing an off pink dress with blue-grey vertical stripes and a white blouse underneath.
She has her face lightly resting on the hand of her upright folded left arm, and she is wearing a blue turquoise gemstone silver ring on her the fourth finger of her left hand.
By her left elbow is a ball of red yarn with a crochet needle sticking out from it; while in her right hand of upright folded arm she holds a string from the ball of yarn that is tied to a piece of paper, that a brown, black and white kitten with a green ribbon wrapped around its neck is playing with.
On the wall behind her to her right is a framed portrait of a man, that may be a soldier, with a branch of pink flowers tucked behind the side of the frame; and in the room beyond the wall we can see a bureau that has resting on it a slim blue vase, as well as a shorter but wider black vase that contains red and blue flowers; and above that a large hanging mirror on the wall with the upper portion tilted forward.

Bha Émile Vernon na oileanach aig sgoil Fine Arts ann an Tours far an do choisinn e a’ chiad duais airson tarraing a-steach 1888; an dèidh sin fhuair e taic bho Uilleam Bouguereau agus Auguste Truphème.
An uairsin a-steach 1898 ghabh e pàirt ann an taisbeanadh Tours de Fine Arts agus Decorative Arts agus nas fhaide air adhart air a’ bhliadhna sin, ann an Taisbeanadh Luchd-ealain na Frainge agus a’ taisbeanadh obair hie gu cunbhalach an sin bho 1898 gu 1913; a’ taisbeanadh dhealbhan, cruthan-tìre, seallaidhean às a’ Bhreatainn Bhig, bouquets de bheatha fhathast a pheant e ann an dath-uisge, a bharrachd air figearan boireann, a thàinig gu bhith na speisealachadh nas fhaide air adhart.
Bha Émile air leth math anns na dealbhan aige le solas bog, figearan ionmholta de chlann agus boireannaich òga eireachdail, ris an robh e tric a' ceangal peata mar cat, cù no eun, agus sgeadaich e a dhealbhan le blàth-fhleasg, no bouquets de bhlàthan, fad a bheatha; ach bha e cuideachd na neach-ealain air leth ioma-chruthach a b’ urrainn peantadh le dian agus cumhachd mar a bha anns na h-obraichean aige an dealbh de Madame Vernon agus Sous la Lampe (Fon lampa).
