A Curious Good Friday Benevolence
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating colour lithograph that captures the essence of a bygone era. This early 20th-century postcard, now part of a private collection, transports us to an intriguing moment in history. The image depicts a scene filled with symbolism and emotion. In the foreground, we see women dressed in traditional attire, their faces etched with compassion as they distribute buns and cards to the poor. A man stands among them, leaning on his cane, grateful for this act of charity. The backdrop reveals St Bartholomew the Great church in Smithfield, its towering stone architecture serving as both witness and sanctuary for this solemn occasion. The crowd gathers around an old grave monument, adding an air of mystery and reverence to the scene. This historical tradition takes place on Good Friday when alms are given to those less fortunate. It speaks volumes about humanity's capacity for kindness and empathy even amidst challenging times. Through this artwork's intricate details and vibrant colours, we are transported back in time to witness this remarkable ceremony firsthand. It serves as a reminder that acts of benevolence have always been at the heart of our shared human experience. As we gaze upon "A Curious Good Friday Benevolence" we can't help but be moved by its timeless message: that compassion knows no bounds and that even small gestures can make a significant impact on someone's life.
