"The Pie Eaters" (Spanish: "Los Niños comiendo pastel") is a notable work by the Spanish Baroque painter Bartolomé Esteban Murillo, created circa 1670. This painting is an exquisite example of Murillo's genre scenes, which often depicted everyday life in 17th-century Seville with a tender and realistic touch. The artwork showcases Murillo's skill in capturing the innocence and playfulness of childhood, themes that were recurrent in his oeuvre and contributed to his popularity during the Spanish Golden Age.

The painting portrays two young boys in the act of eating a pie, with one boy directly engaging with the viewer with an impish gaze, adding a sense of immediacy and connection. The other, absorbed in the act of eating, is oblivious to the onlooker. The use of chiaroscuro, the contrast between light and shadow, is masterfully employed to highlight the figures and the pie, creating a sense of volume and depth. Murillo's delicate brushwork is evident in the rendering of the children's expressions and the textures of their clothing and the pie.

"The Pie Eaters" is often praised for its naturalistic representation of the subjects and its ability to convey a moment of simple joy and satisfaction. The painting is a testament to Murillo's ability to elevate ordinary subjects to the level of fine art, a characteristic that made his work highly sought after during his lifetime and continues to be celebrated today.

The painting is held in a private collection, and it has been exhibited in various art museums around the world, allowing the public to appreciate Murillo's contribution to the genre of portraiture and his depiction of the human experience. As with many of Murillo's works, "The Pie Eaters" reflects the artist's deep humanity and his keen observation of the world around him, making it a significant piece in the study of Spanish Baroque art.
