"Courting Couple" is a painting by the British artist Alfred Walter Bayes (1832–1909), who was known for his work as a painter, etcher, and illustrator. Bayes was part of the second generation of Pre-Raphaelite artists and was associated with the aesthetic movement. His works often featured romantic and allegorical themes, which were common among the Pre-Raphaelites.

The painting "Courting Couple" depicts a scene of a young man and woman engaged in a moment of romantic courtship. The work is characterized by its attention to detail, rich color palette, and the use of light and shadow to create a mood that is both intimate and idyllic. Bayes' skill in capturing the textures of fabrics and the natural environment contributes to the painting's evocative quality.

As with many of Bayes' pieces, "Courting Couple" reflects the influence of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood's principles, including a return to the meticulous detail and vibrant colors of Quattrocento Italian art, as well as an interest in nature and medieval themes. The painting may also exhibit the typical aesthetic movement's emphasis on beauty and sensual qualities.

The exact date of creation for "Courting Couple" is not well-documented, which is not uncommon for works from this period. Additionally, information about the provenance of the painting, its critical reception, and its place within Bayes' oeuvre is limited. If the painting is held in a museum or private collection, this information is not widely available in public records.

As an artist, Alfred Walter Bayes was a respected member of the Royal Academy of Arts and his works were exhibited regularly during his lifetime. Despite this, his legacy has been somewhat overshadowed by the more prominent members of the Pre-Raphaelite movement, such as Dante Gabriel Rossetti, John Everett Millais, and William Holman Hunt.
