Genre Painting is the painting of everyday scenes from featuring ordinary people at work or relaxing, depicted in a normal and realistic style. With this approach, Genre Painting is about observation of costumes, roles and settings. The French Academy placed it as the third most significant in its hierarchy of paintings – behind History painting and Portraiture.
