EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Better is little with fear of the Lord" by English School, 19th century, showcases a profound message through its picturesque composition. Set in a serene castle garden, the image portrays the stark contrast between wealth and poverty, emphasizing Christian values and teachings. In this thought-provoking scene, we witness a humble cottage nestled at the gate of an opulent castle. The distinctions between social classes are evident as the rich master resides in his grand dwelling while the poor family finds solace in their modest accommodation. Despite their differences, it is clear that both households hold dear to their faith and instill these values within their children. The instructional nature of this artwork becomes apparent as it encourages viewers to reflect upon material possessions versus spiritual richness. It reminds us that true happiness lies not in worldly wealth but rather in our reverence for God. Through this instructive visual narrative, we are reminded of the importance of humility and gratitude regardless of our circumstances. It serves as a gentle reminder that even with limited resources or meager dwellings, one can find contentment by living according to Christian principles. This remarkable print from Bridgeman Images captures not only an aesthetically pleasing scene but also imparts timeless wisdom for all who behold it.
