Augustus Edwin Mulready

Augustus Edwin Mulready (1844-1904) was an English genre painter specializing in street scenes of London's underbelly - street urchins were a favorite subject. One imagines that polite society was rather uncomfortable with these depictions.

 A London Jo - the end of the day (1884)

 A Street Flower Seller (1882)

 A Walk with Grandpa

 Fatigued Minstrels (1883)

 Flower Girls - A Summer's Night (1885)

 The Little Spies (1886)

 Uncared For (1871)

I have no title for this one. If I were naming it, perhaps I'd call it Yearning.
