"Sympathy" is a notable painting by John George Brown, an influential British-born American artist renowned for his realistic depictions of street urchins and shoeshine boys in urban settings during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Created in 1895, this work exemplifies Brown's genre painting style, where he often portrayed the everyday life of underprivileged children with a sentimental or moralizing tone, reflecting the social consciousness of the Gilded Age.

The painting "Sympathy" captures a poignant moment between two children, likely encountered on the streets of New York City, where Brown spent much of his career after immigrating from England. The artwork is characterized by its fine detail, emotive quality, and the use of light to accentuate the expressions and mood of the subjects. Brown's skillful brushwork and color palette evoke a sense of empathy in the viewer, inviting contemplation on the social issues of the time, such as poverty and child labor.

As a member of the National Academy of Design and an associate of the American Watercolor Society, Brown's works, including "Sympathy," were widely exhibited and acclaimed during his lifetime. This painting not only reflects Brown's artistic talents but also serves as a historical document, offering insight into the socio-economic conditions of late 19th-century America. "Sympathy" remains an important piece within Brown's oeuvre, contributing to the understanding of American genre painting and the cultural narrative of the period.
