EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Little Sisters of the Poor, 'The greatest of these is Charity'" by William Dacres Adams depicts a heartwarming scene that beautifully captures the essence of compassion and selflessness. The image showcases a group of Little Sisters of the Poor, clad in their humble habits, engaged in acts of charity towards those less fortunate. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring life to this lithograph, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in the scene. Each sister's face radiates kindness as they extend a helping hand to mendicants and beggars who rely on their generosity for survival. This visual representation serves as a powerful reminder that true wealth lies not in material possessions but rather in our ability to show love and care for one another. Adams' work was originally created as an illustration for his book "A Book of Beggars" published in 1912. Through this artwork, he sought to shed light on the plight faced by those living on society's fringes while emphasizing the importance of charitable acts. This print from Bridgeman Images is part of Valerie Jackson Harris Collection, showcasing historical moments captured through artistry. It serves as both an aesthetic delight and an inspiration to embrace empathy and support those most vulnerable among us.
