"Oefeningen Op De Gitaar" (English: "Playing with the Guitar") is a 19th-century painting by the Dutch-Belgian artist Henriette Ronner-Knip (1821–1909), known for her detailed and lifelike depictions of domestic animals, particularly cats. This work is one of Ronner-Knip's many pieces that capture the playful and often anthropomorphic activities of cats, which endeared her to art patrons and animal lovers alike.

The painting portrays a charming scene in which a group of cats is engaging with a guitar, an example of Ronner-Knip's skill in blending realism with whimsy. The central feline figures are depicted with careful attention to their fur textures, expressions, and movements, suggesting a moment of curiosity and entertainment as they interact with the musical instrument. The composition reflects the 19th-century European fascination with domesticity and the growing interest in portraying pets as part of the family circle.

Henriette Ronner-Knip's work, including "Oefeningen Op De Gitaar," reflects the broader trends of the period's genre painting, where the focus was often on everyday life and ordinary subjects. Her ability to capture the nuanced behaviors of cats and her meticulous brushwork contributed to her reputation as a leading animalière, an artist specializing in the portrayal of animals.

"Oefeningen Op De Gitaar" is not only a testament to Ronner-Knip's artistic talent but also an example of the cultural significance of pets in the Victorian era. The painting remains an endearing piece within Ronner-Knip's oeuvre and continues to be appreciated by art historians and cat enthusiasts for its technical proficiency and charming subject matter.
