"Her First Born" is a poignant watercolor painting created by the British artist Walter Langley in 1894. Langley, a prominent figure in the Newlyn School of artists, is renowned for his empathetic and realistic depictions of working-class life in the fishing village of Newlyn, Cornwall. This particular work exemplifies his mastery in capturing the emotional depth and social realities of his subjects.

The painting portrays a young mother cradling her newborn child, enveloped in a tender and intimate moment. Langley's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the delicate rendering of the mother’s expression and the soft folds of her clothing. The subdued color palette and the gentle interplay of light and shadow enhance the serene and contemplative atmosphere of the scene.

"Her First Born" is celebrated for its emotional resonance and technical proficiency. Langley’s ability to convey the universal themes of motherhood and familial love through the lens of everyday life has earned the painting critical acclaim. The work reflects the artist’s broader commitment to social realism, a hallmark of the Newlyn School, which sought to depict the authentic experiences of the working class with dignity and respect.

The painting is also notable for its historical context. Created during a period of significant social and economic change in late 19th-century Britain, "Her First Born" offers a window into the lives of ordinary people, highlighting the intimate and personal amidst broader societal shifts. Langley's work, including this piece, contributes to the rich tapestry of British art history, offering insights into the cultural and social fabric of the time.

Today, "Her First Born" continues to be admired for its artistic merit and emotional depth, standing as a testament to Walter Langley’s skill and sensitivity as an artist.
