Victor-Gabriel Gilbert's painting "Her New Friend" is a captivating example of 19th-century French genre painting, a style that focuses on scenes from everyday life. Gilbert, born in 1847 and active until his death in 1933, was known for his detailed and charming depictions of Parisian life, particularly scenes involving children and market activities. "Her New Friend" exemplifies his ability to capture the innocence and simplicity of childhood with a keen eye for detail and a warm, inviting palette.

The painting portrays a young girl, elegantly dressed in the fashion of the time, meeting a new companion, presumably a pet or a small animal, which she regards with a mix of curiosity and affection. The background is meticulously rendered, showcasing an interior setting that reflects the bourgeois comforts of the era. Gilbert's use of light and shadow adds depth to the scene, highlighting the textures of the girl's clothing and the softness of her new friend's fur.

Gilbert's technique is characterized by his precise brushwork and his ability to convey the subtleties of human expression and interaction. "Her New Friend" is no exception, as it captures a fleeting moment of connection and discovery. The painting not only reflects the artist's technical skill but also his sensitivity to the nuances of human emotion and the simple joys of life.

Throughout his career, Gilbert exhibited regularly at the Salon des Artistes Français, where he received numerous accolades for his work. His paintings are celebrated for their charm, attention to detail, and the warmth with which they depict everyday scenes. "Her New Friend" remains a testament to Gilbert's talent and his contribution to the genre painting tradition in France.
