The Artist's Child (1910) Online

Jacques, the son of a wealthy merchant, is a painter of promise. His father, however, looks upon his aspirations with disfavor. Praise by some friends of one of the young man's paintings leads to a quarrel between him and his father, and he goes away to make his own way in the world. Years pass, but success does not come to the artist; his wife dies, his child is starving, and one day falls exhausted in the street. A lady takes the child home and finds the father to be her son, whom she has been trying to trace ever since his hasty departure from home. A reconciliation is soon brought about, and the father welcomes his son and grandchild home.

Original French title is undetermined.
