"A Couple with a Child Escaping from a Burning House" is an evocative painting by the French artist Jean-Baptiste Greuze (1725–1805), who was renowned for his genre scenes and moralistic narratives that often depicted the lives of ordinary people. This artwork, which falls within the Rococo to Neoclassical transition period, captures a dramatic and poignant moment as a family is depicted in the midst of a life-threatening crisis, fleeing from the flames consuming their home.

The painting is characterized by its emotional intensity and the dynamic composition that Greuze employs to convey the urgency and despair of the situation. The central figures—a man, a woman, and their child—are rendered with a sense of movement and desperation. The man, likely the father, is shown leading the escape, his expression one of fear and determination. The woman, clutching the child, follows closely, her face etched with concern and shock. The child, seemingly oblivious to the danger, adds an innocent contrast to the chaotic scene.

Greuze's use of color and light accentuates the drama, with the fire's glow casting a lurid light on the family, highlighting their expressions and the details of their flight. The artist's brushwork conveys the texture of the smoke and the heat of the flames, making the viewer almost feel the urgency of the moment.

This work is significant not only for its artistic merits but also for its social commentary. Greuze often used his paintings to reflect on societal issues and moral values, and "A Couple with a Child Escaping from a Burning House" can be interpreted as a metaphor for the fragility of human life and the importance of familial bonds in the face of disaster.

The painting is an important example of Greuze's later work and contributes to the understanding of the social and artistic climate of 18th-century France. It is held in high regard for its narrative power and technical execution, and it continues to be studied for its historical and cultural significance within the broader context of European art history.
