"Two Children with a Dog" is an oil painting by the French artist Jean-Baptiste Greuze (1725–1805), who was renowned for his genre paintings and portraiture that often carried moral themes. The painting depicts a tender scene of domestic life, featuring two young children interacting affectionately with a dog, which was a common subject in Greuze's work, reflecting the Enlightenment-era interest in childhood innocence and the natural expression of emotions.

While the exact date of creation for "Two Children with a Dog" is not definitively established, it is stylistically consistent with Greuze's work from the mid-to-late 18th century. The painting is characteristic of Greuze's approach to genre scenes, where he combined a Rococo sensibility with a more sentimental and moralizing narrative, a style that prefigured the Romantic movement. The artist's skill in rendering the textures of skin, fabric, and fur, as well as his ability to capture the psychological depth of his subjects, is evident in this work.

Greuze's paintings often featured children or young adults and were notable for their emotional resonance and the detailed depiction of his subjects. "Two Children with a Dog" exemplifies this aspect of his oeuvre, as it portrays the children with a naturalism that was innovative for the time, moving away from the idealized representations of youth common in earlier periods.

The painting is part of Greuze's broader legacy, which includes his influence on later artists and his contribution to the evolution of genre painting in France. His work was well-received by critics and patrons during his lifetime, and he was admitted to the Académie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture in 1755. However, his reputation suffered in later years due to changing tastes and the rise of Neoclassicism, which overshadowed his sentimental style.

Today, "Two Children with a Dog" is appreciated for its historical significance and its place within the context of 18th-century French art. It is held in a private collection or a museum, and it continues to be studied as an example of Greuze's artistry and the cultural values of the period in which it was created.
