"Tom and his Pigeons" is an engraving created by the English artist and engraver Charles Knight (1743–circa 1826), which was published in the year 1792. The work is based on a painting by John Russell, a renowned English portrait painter and pastelist of the 18th century. The engraving depicts a young boy, presumably named Tom, in a moment of quiet companionship with his pigeons, suggesting themes of innocence, pastoral life, and the bond between humans and animals.

Charles Knight, active during the late 18th and early 19th centuries, was known for his skill in translating paintings into engravings, which were widely distributed and could reach a broader audience than the original works. His engravings often captured the delicate nuances of the original paintings, preserving the artist's intent while adding his own interpretation through the engraving process.

John Russell, the original painter of the scene, was a member of the Royal Academy and served as a painter to King George III. He was highly regarded for his ability to render lifelike portraits and had a particular talent for capturing the texture and play of light on skin and fabric. In "Tom and his Pigeons," Russell's sensitivity to detail and character would have been faithfully conveyed by Knight's engraving, allowing the charm and sentiment of the original painting to be appreciated in print form.

The artwork "Tom and his Pigeons" reflects the cultural and artistic values of its time, offering a glimpse into the late 18th-century British society's appreciation for genre scenes and the natural world. It remains an example of the collaborative relationship between painters and engravers in the dissemination of art during the period.
