"Playtime" is a painting by Henriette Ronner-Knip (1821–1909), a Dutch-Belgian artist known for her depictions of domestic animals, particularly cats. Born in Amsterdam, Ronner-Knip was part of an artistic family and developed a reputation for her finely detailed and charming portrayals of feline life. Her work reflects the 19th-century fascination with domesticity and pets, capturing the playful and endearing aspects of her subjects.

"Playtime" exemplifies Ronner-Knip's skill in rendering the texture of fur and the liveliness of her animal subjects. The painting typically features kittens engaged in playful antics, which was a common theme in Ronner-Knip's oeuvre. Her ability to capture the movement and personality of cats made her work popular among art collectors and the general public during her lifetime.

The painting is characterized by its attention to detail, use of light, and the anthropomorphic portrayal of the kittens, which are often shown with toys or in domestic settings that resonate with human domestic life. Ronner-Knip's work, including "Playtime," contributed to the Victorian era's idealization of home life and the role of pets within it.

Henriette Ronner-Knip's paintings have been exhibited in various European museums and galleries, and her work is collected by enthusiasts of both fine art and animal portraiture. "Playtime" continues to be appreciated for its artistic merit and its delightful representation of animal behavior, and it remains a testament to Ronner-Knip's legacy as a prominent animalier (animal painter) of the 19th century.
