Eliseu Visconti's Ronda de Crianças (translated as "Children's Round") is a painting by the Brazilian artist Eliseu Visconti, one of the most prominent figures in Brazilian art during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Visconti is widely regarded as a pioneer of modern art in Brazil, and his works often reflect influences from Impressionism, Symbolism, and Art Nouveau, which he encountered during his studies in Europe.

The painting Ronda de Crianças depicts a group of children engaged in a circular play, a common and joyful activity in childhood. The composition captures a sense of movement and innocence, with the children holding hands and forming a ring, likely dancing or playing a traditional game. The scene is imbued with a soft, luminous quality, characteristic of Visconti's style, which often employed delicate brushstrokes and a harmonious palette to evoke a dreamlike atmosphere.

While the exact date of the painting's creation is not definitively documented, it is believed to have been produced during Visconti's mature period, when he was deeply influenced by his European training and his return to Brazil. Visconti studied at the Academia Imperial de Belas Artes in Rio de Janeiro before continuing his education in Paris at the École des Beaux-Arts and the Académie Julian. His exposure to the artistic movements in Europe, particularly Impressionism and Art Nouveau, significantly shaped his approach to color, light, and composition.

Ronda de Crianças exemplifies Visconti's ability to blend European artistic techniques with Brazilian themes and settings. The painting reflects his interest in capturing the essence of Brazilian life, particularly through scenes of everyday activities and the natural beauty of the country. The focus on children and their playful interaction also aligns with broader Symbolist themes of purity and the idyllic.

Eliseu Visconti's contributions to Brazilian art extend beyond his paintings. He was also a designer and decorator, responsible for significant works such as the stage curtain of the Theatro Municipal in Rio de Janeiro. His legacy is celebrated as a bridge between traditional academic art and modernist tendencies in Brazil.

The current location of Ronda de Crianças is not widely documented in public records, and further details about its provenance or exhibition history remain limited. However, the painting continues to be recognized as an important example of Visconti's artistic vision and his role in shaping Brazilian art history.
