"Idle Hours I" is a notable painting by the American artist Henry Siddons Mowbray, created in 1895. Mowbray, who was born in Alexandria, Egypt, in 1858 and later moved to the United States, is recognized for his contributions to the American Renaissance movement. His works often reflect a blend of classical themes and meticulous attention to detail, characteristics that are prominently displayed in "Idle Hours I."

The painting depicts a serene and intimate domestic scene, capturing a moment of leisure and tranquility. It features a group of elegantly dressed women lounging in a richly decorated interior, engaged in various leisurely activities such as reading and conversing. The composition is carefully balanced, with the figures arranged in a harmonious manner that guides the viewer's eye through the scene. Mowbray's use of light and shadow enhances the sense of depth and realism, while his attention to the textures of fabrics and furnishings adds to the overall richness of the work.

"Idle Hours I" is celebrated for its refined aesthetic and the way it encapsulates the leisurely lifestyle of the upper class during the late 19th century. The painting reflects Mowbray's skill in rendering human figures with grace and elegance, as well as his ability to create a mood of calm and relaxation. It is a testament to his mastery of genre painting and his ability to convey the subtleties of human interaction and the beauty of everyday moments.

The painting is part of the collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, where it continues to be admired by visitors for its exquisite detail and serene composition. "Idle Hours I" remains an important work in Mowbray's oeuvre and a fine example of American Renaissance art.
