EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Saying Grace" captures a heartfelt moment of a family coming together to give thanks before their meal. Painted by Karel de Moor in the 17th or 18th century, this oil on canvas artwork measures 61x64.5 cm and is currently housed at the Musee des Beaux-Arts in Dunkirk, France. The scene depicts a humble family gathered around a rustic table, with parents and children joining hands in prayer. The father's head is bowed respectfully while the mother tenderly breastfeeds their baby, symbolizing nourishment both physical and spiritual. A young boy sits beside his siblings, his innocent face reflecting gratitude for the food they are about to receive. Moor masterfully portrays not only the poverty-stricken circumstances of this family but also their resilience and unity through faith. The painting exudes an aura of simplicity and sincerity as each member offers their silent blessings. This timeless piece reminds us of the importance of gratitude and familial bonds even amidst challenging times. It serves as a poignant reminder that no matter our circumstances, we can always find solace in coming together as one to express our appreciation for life's blessings.
