"Old Woman and Boy" by Bartolomé Esteban Murillo is a notable work of art by the Spanish Baroque painter, renowned for his religious works and genre paintings depicting everyday life. Although the exact date of creation is not well-documented, it is generally believed to have been painted in the latter half of the 17th century, during Murillo's mature period when his style had fully developed. The painting is exemplary of Murillo's skill in capturing the tender and humane aspects of his subjects, often imbued with a sense of gentle realism and warmth.

The artwork portrays an elderly woman and a young boy in an intimate, domestic setting, suggesting a familial or caregiving relationship between the two figures. The old woman, often depicted with a kind and wrinkled face, is shown engaging with the boy, possibly in a moment of teaching or sharing wisdom. The boy's attentive posture and gaze indicate a sense of respect and affection towards the woman. Murillo's use of light and shadow, as well as his soft, earthy palette, enhances the emotional depth of the scene and highlights the textural details of the subjects' clothing and surroundings.

"Old Woman and Boy" is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its social commentary, as Murillo often included the lower classes and the marginalized in his genre scenes, offering a window into the lives of 17th-century Spaniards. The painting is a testament to Murillo's ability to convey complex human relationships and emotions, making it a valuable piece for both art historians and admirers of Spanish Baroque art.

The painting is held in a notable art collection, although its current location may vary as works are often loaned to museums for temporary exhibitions. As with many of Murillo's works, "Old Woman and Boy" has been studied for its technique, composition, and thematic content, contributing to the understanding of the social and cultural context of the period in which it was created.
