"Ring-a-ring-a-roses" is a notable painting by Edward Atkinson Hornel, a Scottish painter associated with the Glasgow Boys, a group of influential modern artists in the late 19th century. Created in 1892, this artwork exemplifies Hornel's fascination with childhood innocence and his innovative approach to capturing the vibrancy of nature. The painting depicts a group of children engaged in the timeless play of 'Ring a Ring o' Roses', a traditional nursery rhyme and game known across the English-speaking world. Hornel's technique is characterized by a rich, textural application of paint, employing a palette that vibrates with the lush greens of the landscape and the vivid hues of the children's attire, thereby evoking a sense of joy and the ephemeral nature of childhood.

Hornel's interest in the themes of youth and the outdoors is evident in "Ring-a-ring-a-roses," where the artist's brushwork and color choice work in harmony to create a dynamic and immersive scene. The painting not only captures a moment of innocent play but also reflects the broader artistic and cultural movements of the time, including a growing interest in symbolism and the exploration of national identity through folklore and tradition. As part of Hornel's broader oeuvre, "Ring-a-ring-a-roses" contributes to our understanding of the late Victorian and early Edwardian periods in British art, offering insights into the social and artistic preoccupations of the era.

Edward Atkinson Hornel (1864–1933) was born in Australia but moved to Scotland as a child, where he later studied at the Edinburgh Royal Academy. His work, including "Ring-a-ring-a-roses," is notable for its distinctive style that blends elements of realism with a decorative quality that would influence the development of Art Nouveau in Britain. Today, Hornel's paintings are celebrated for their technical skill, their vibrant depiction of Scottish and Asian scenes, and their contribution to the Glasgow School's impact on the evolution of modern art in the United Kingdom.
