"Playing Kittens" is an oil painting by Belgian artist Charles van den Eycken (1859–1923), known for his detailed and lifelike depictions of domestic animals, particularly cats. This work exemplifies van den Eycken's skill in capturing the playful nature and delicate features of his feline subjects. The painting portrays a scene of several kittens engaged in playful antics, a subject that resonated with the Victorian and Edwardian sensibilities of his time, when such portrayals of domestic tranquility and charm were highly popular.

The composition of "Playing Kittens" is carefully constructed to draw the viewer's eye across the various elements of kitten play: the tussling of fur, the batting of a ball, or the curious exploration of their environment. Van den Eycken's attention to detail in the rendering of the kittens' fur and expressions adds a level of realism and character to each subject, making the painting not just a representation of kittens at play, but a study of their individual personalities.

While the exact date of creation for "Playing Kittens" is not well-documented, it is consistent with the style and themes prevalent in van den Eycken's work during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His paintings often found a place in the homes of the bourgeoisie and were reproduced in various forms, contributing to the artist's popularity during his lifetime.
