Two Boys Blowing Bubbles is a painting by the seventeenth-century Walloon artist Michaelina Wautier.
It has been suggested that the painting is a double portrait, given the specific facial expressions and costumes of the two boys depicted are so distinctive.
As with the bubble, both are symbolic of the passing of time, and were familiar motifs in seventeenth-century painting.
[2] The painting was previously attributed to Jacob van Oost.
[2] A third painting, executed in the eighteenth century and copying just the boy on the right, is in the Collection des Musee d'Amiens, France.
