"Children Playing Horse and Carriage" is a watercolor on paper by Constantin Guys, a French artist known for his sketches of Parisian life. This intimate scene captures the carefree spirit of children playing a game of make-believe. The loose brushstrokes and light washes of color create a sense of movement and spontaneity, highlighting the fleeting nature of childhood. The work is held in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York and is a testament to Guys' keen observation of everyday life.
