"Feeding the Goldfish" is a painting by John Reinhard Weguelin (1849–1927), an English Pre-Raphaelite painter and illustrator known for his depictions of mythological and historical subjects. The painting is emblematic of Weguelin's style, which often included classical themes and an emphasis on beauty and romanticism. "Feeding the Goldfish" portrays a serene moment, capturing a woman in the act of feeding goldfish in a tranquil pond setting. The subject is rendered with delicate attention to detail and a soft color palette, which are characteristic of Weguelin's approach to art.

John Reinhard Weguelin was influenced by the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, a group of English painters, poets, and critics founded in 1848 who aimed to reform art by rejecting what they considered the mechanistic approach to art that had come to dominate European art following the High Renaissance. Although Weguelin was not a formal member of the Brotherhood, his work reflects the Pre-Raphaelite principles of detailed observation of nature, interest in themes from mythology and literature, and an emphasis on vivid, sometimes jewel-like color.

"Feeding the Goldfish" is notable for its idyllic and pastoral quality, evoking a sense of timelessness and an idealized vision of nature that was a hallmark of the Pre-Raphaelite aesthetic. The painting's composition and the use of light underscore the artist's skill in creating a mood of peaceful contemplation. As with many of Weguelin's works, the painting also reflects the Victorian fascination with the classical world, as evidenced by the classical attire of the woman and the architectural elements that suggest a setting inspired by ancient Greece or Rome.

The painting is part of Weguelin's broader oeuvre, which includes other well-known works such as "The Bath" and "The Obsequies of an Egyptian Cat." "Feeding the Goldfish" contributes to the understanding of late 19th-century British art and the enduring influence of the Pre-Raphaelite movement. It continues to be appreciated for its aesthetic qualities and as an example of Weguelin's artistic contributions to the period.
