Hi, I'm looking for the name of a painting that shows a girl running after a hoop/ball but it's all in shadows and looks like there may be prison walls in it. I saw it once as an illustration to a story/article.

Also the artist of 'The Blue Boy', full head portrait by Daphne someone.

Many thanks, Wheaten

The famous painting of The Blue Boy (c. 1770) is by Thomas Gainsborough.
I'm late in spotting this, but I think the painting you describe is by Gorgio Di Chirico, 20th century, famous for his so-called 'Metaphysical' paintings
Mystery and Melancholy of a Street (1914) ?
