"A Scene from Molière's 'L'Avare'" is a painting by the 19th-century British artist William Powell Frith, renowned for his genre paintings that often depicted scenes from everyday life, literature, and the theater. This particular work captures a moment from the play "L'Avare" (The Miser) by the French playwright Molière, a comedy first performed in 1668 that satirizes greed and love of money through the character of Harpagon, the titular miser.

Frith's painting, executed in the Victorian era, reflects the period's fascination with the theater and the dramatic arts, as well as the artist's personal interest in narrative and the depiction of character. In the painting, Frith meticulously recreates a scene from the play, showcasing his skill in composition, attention to detail, and ability to convey the theatricality of the moment. The characters are portrayed in mid-action, allowing viewers to sense the tension and emotion of the scene, which is a hallmark of Molière's comedic style.

The work is an example of Frith's broader oeuvre, which often included representations of popular plays and novels, making the literary and dramatic arts accessible to the Victorian public through visual means. "A Scene from Molière's 'L'Avare'" not only serves as an artistic homage to Molière's enduring work but also provides insight into the cultural exchange between the visual and performing arts during the 19th century.

As a painting that bridges literature, theater, and visual art, Frith's "A Scene from Molière's 'L'Avare'" holds a place in the study of Victorian art and the period's engagement with earlier cultural works. It is a testament to the lasting influence of Molière's characters and themes, as well as to Frith's capacity to capture the essence of a literary scene on canvas.
