"In Disgrace" is a genre painting by French artist Théophile-Emmanuel Duverger (1821–1901), known for his detailed and often sentimental depictions of children and domestic life in the 19th century. The painting captures a poignant moment in which a young girl sits forlornly on a step, presumably having been scolded or punished, hence the title "In Disgrace." With her head bowed and a tearful expression, the subject evokes the viewer's empathy, while the detailed rendering of her attire and surroundings reflects the artist's attention to the textures and materials of the period.

Duverger's work often reflects the Victorian era's fascination with childhood innocence and morality, and "In Disgrace" is a prime example of this theme. The painting's composition and the use of light and shadow are carefully constructed to draw the viewer's attention to the emotional state of the young girl, making it a compelling study of human emotion and a social commentary on the treatment of children.

The exact date of creation for "In Disgrace" is not well-documented, but Duverger's active period as an artist suggests it would have been produced in the mid to late 19th century. The painting is characteristic of the academic art style of the time, which emphasized fine detail, a polished finish, and often, a moral or narrative component.

As with many works of its time, "In Disgrace" may have been intended to appeal to the sensibilities of the burgeoning middle class, offering a sentimental and moralizing image that could serve as both decoration and instruction in the private home. The popularity of such works during the Victorian era contributed to the success of artists like Duverger, who specialized in scenes of domestic life and childhood.

"In Disgrace" by Théophile-Emmanuel Duverger remains an evocative example of 19th-century genre painting, reflecting the era's artistic and cultural values while also providing insight into the historical context of childhood and family life. The painting is held in private collections and has been featured in various art exhibitions, contributing to the understanding of genre painting and the broader narrative of French academic art in the 19th century.
