EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of compassion and love as depicted in Robert-Fleury's painting, "Let the little children come to me". The oil on canvas masterpiece, created in 1837 by Joseph-Nicolas Robert-Fleury, measures 90x100 cm and is housed at the Musee des Beaux-Arts in Nantes, France. In this scene inspired by Matthew 19 from the New Testament of the Bible, Jesus Christ welcomes a group of young children with open arms. Despite being rebuked by his disciples for bringing their little ones forward, Jesus insists that they should not be hindered but rather allowed to approach him. His words echo through time: "Let the little children come to me". The image showcases a powerful moment where innocence meets divinity. The children are portrayed as infants and young ones held lovingly by their mothers. Their presence symbolizes purity and vulnerability while highlighting Jesus' teachings about humility and faith. Through this artwork, we witness an enduring message that transcends time - an invitation for all people to embrace childlike wonderment and trust in order to enter into God's kingdom. This profound connection between Jesus Christ and these innocent souls serves as a reminder of our own capacity for love, acceptance, and spiritual growth. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Fine Art Finder courtesy of www. bridgemanimages. com, let us reflect on our role in nurturing future generations with kindness and compassion just as Jesus did so long ago.
