"The Child Miranda" is a painting by the Irish artist Frederic William Burton (1816–1900), who is renowned for his watercolor portraiture and genre paintings. The work is inspired by William Shakespeare's play "The Tempest," specifically the character Miranda, the daughter of the deposed Duke of Milan, Prospero. Burton's depiction of Miranda is emblematic of the Pre-Raphaelite movement, which emphasized a return to the abundant detail, intense colors, and complex compositions of Quattrocento Italian art.

In "The Child Miranda," Burton captures the innocence and youthful curiosity of the character, often portrayed as a symbol of purity and naivety in Shakespeare's narrative. The painting is characterized by its fine detail, delicate brushwork, and the use of vibrant colors that enhance the ethereal quality of the subject. Burton's skill in rendering the textures of fabrics and the subtleties of the human face is evident in this work.

The painting is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its cultural and literary associations. It reflects the Victorian fascination with Shakespearean themes and the era's penchant for narrative art that tells a story or captures a moment from literature. As with many of Burton's works, "The Child Miranda" is appreciated for its technical excellence and its ability to convey the emotional depth of its subject.

Frederic William Burton's contributions to art during the 19th century were considerable, and his role as the director of the National Gallery in London further solidified his influence on the art world. "The Child Miranda" remains an important work within Burton's oeuvre, exemplifying his mastery of watercolor and his ability to intertwine visual art with the rich tapestry of literary history.
