The Lost Child is a 1780 watercolor by Isaac Cruikshank, a Rococo painting work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This watercolor shows four people in a dimly lit room. A man in a blue coat and hat holds a paper, while another man in a light jacket stands beside him. A woman in a white dress sits on a bench, holding a child, and another child peers over her shoulder. The walls are plain, with a mirror hanging above them. The woman’s face looks worried as she holds the child close. The artist used soft colors and quick brushstrokes to capture the moment. Next, look up Cruikshank, Isaac to see more of his work.
