      "WIDE AWAKE"" - Artist is ARTHUR JOHN ELSLEY (1860-1952) known for his "Victorian Childhood" style. During the middle of the nineteenth century, genre paintings with domestic life subjects became popular in England. The new affluent middle class favored in particular genre paintings that depicted scenes of children with their pets in playful settings. Arthur John Elsley was one of the most popular English artists who depicted such childhood scenes in the late Victorian and Edwardian periods. His works were so popular during his lifetime that many of his paintings were reproduced as prints, and were often used in calendars, advertisements, books and magazines.
