France
Léon Emile Caille was a French genre painter who specialized in touching, sentimental scenes, often depicting mothers with children.
He graduated from the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris and became known and successful for his small, simple works about peasant life. Caillé romanticized rural life, and it was popular at the turn of the century, especially among the growing number of city dwellers who were already feeling nostalgic.
