"Schoolchildren Watching a Boy Cry" (1861) is a painting by the 19th-century German artist Friedrich Eduard Meyerheim, known for his genre scenes that often depicted everyday life with a focus on children and family. This particular work captures a poignant moment in which a group of schoolchildren gather around a boy who appears to be in distress, possibly due to bullying or a personal loss. The painting is executed in the detailed and realistic style characteristic of Meyerheim's work, and it reflects the social and educational values of the period.

The composition of "Schoolchildren Watching a Boy Cry" is carefully constructed to draw the viewer's attention to the emotional center of the scene—the crying boy—while the reactions of the surrounding children range from concern to curiosity, highlighting the varied responses to another's suffering. Meyerheim's use of light and shadow, as well as his attention to facial expressions and body language, enhances the emotional impact of the painting.

Friedrich Eduard Meyerheim (1808-1879) was part of a family of artists and received his training from his father before continuing his studies at the Prussian Academy of Arts. His works often reflect a Biedermeier sensibility, a style prevalent in the German-speaking states during the early to mid-19th century that emphasized modesty and middle-class virtues.

While "Schoolchildren Watching a Boy Cry" is not as widely known as some of Meyerheim's other works, it remains a significant example of his artistic legacy and provides insight into the social dynamics and educational environment of the time. The painting is held in a private collection or a museum, and it continues to be studied for its historical and artistic value.
