"The Edgar Children" is a notable painting by the British artist Arthur William Devis, who was active during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Devis, known for his portraiture and genre scenes, created this work in 1789. The painting is a group portrait that captures the children of the Edgar family, a prominent family of the time.

Arthur William Devis was born in 1762, the son of the painter Arthur Devis. He trained under his father and later at the Royal Academy Schools in London, where he honed his skills in portrait painting. Devis's style is characterized by its attention to detail and the delicate rendering of his subjects, which is evident in "The Edgar Children."

In "The Edgar Children," Devis employs a classical composition to arrange the figures harmoniously within the frame. The children are depicted in a naturalistic setting, which was a popular trend in portraiture during this period. The painting reflects the sentimental and moral values of the time, emphasizing the innocence and virtue of childhood. Each child is portrayed with individual attention, capturing their unique personalities and expressions, which adds a sense of intimacy and realism to the work.

The painting is also significant for its historical context. It provides insight into the fashion, interior design, and social customs of the late 18th century. The children's attire and the setting offer a glimpse into the lifestyle of an affluent family during this era.

"The Edgar Children" is part of the collection at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where it continues to be appreciated for its artistic merit and historical significance. The work exemplifies Devis's skill as a portraitist and his ability to convey the charm and character of his subjects, making it a valuable piece in the study of British portraiture.
