Franks Children with Lamb is a 1735 oil by Gerardus Duyckinck I, a Rococo painting work, held at Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art.
This painting features two children, a boy and a girl, posing together in a formal setting. The boy, dressed in a blue coat with white trim, stands confidently with his left hand on his hip. The girl, wearing a red dress with white trim, sits beside him, gently holding a lamb in her lap and offering a flower to the boy. The background of the painting is dark and muted, with hints of a landscape visible behind the children. The overall atmosphere is one of quiet elegance and refinement.
