EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Giving alms, 1393" takes us back to the 14th century in France, immersing us in a scene of compassion and charity. The image is an illustrated page from Le Pelerinage de vie humaine by Guillaume de Deguilleville, carefully preserved at the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris. In this medieval masterpiece, we witness beggars seeking alms from a kind-hearted woman. The vibrant colors bring life to the artwork as it portrays the stark reality of poverty and destitution during that era. A lady gracefully descends a flight of steps while extending her hand towards one of the beggars who leans on his stick for support. The artist skillfully captures not only the physical appearance but also conveys a powerful message about societal issues prevalent during those times. This print serves as a reminder that acts of generosity have always been essential in combating poverty and uplifting those less fortunate. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported to another time and place where empathy transcends centuries. It reminds us that even amidst adversity, humanity has always found ways to extend kindness and alleviate suffering. This photograph print is an invaluable treasure showcasing both artistic brilliance and historical significance - truly deserving its place among esteemed collections worldwide.
