"Boys Playing Marbles" is a genre painting by the British artist Richard Morton Paye (1750–1821), who was known for his depictions of domestic and everyday life scenes during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The painting captures a candid moment of childhood, illustrating a group of boys engrossed in a game of marbles, a pastime popular among children of that era. Paye's work is characterized by its attention to detail, vibrant color palette, and the ability to convey the innocence and simplicity of youth.

The artwork serves as a visual document of the social customs and leisure activities of children at the time, offering insights into the material culture and societal norms. Paye's portrayal of the boys, their interaction, and the setting reflects the artist's skill in rendering both the human figure and the nuances of expression and movement. "Boys Playing Marbles" is emblematic of Paye's artistic oeuvre, which often focused on the joys and sorrows of the lower and middle classes, and it stands as a testament to his contribution to the genre painting tradition in British art.

As a historical piece, "Boys Playing Marbles" not only provides aesthetic enjoyment but also serves as an educational tool, allowing contemporary viewers to engage with the pastimes and daily life of a bygone era. The painting is an important work within Paye's body of art and holds value for both art historians and the general public for its depiction of childhood and social history.
