Amidst the tranquil hues of a timeless masterpiece, Robert Mynors' Portrait of a Tired Mother and Her Sleeping Child (1797) invites us to pause and reflect. The mother's gentle gaze, reminiscent of the Madonna lactans with her sleeping child in oil on oak (38.5 x 28 cm) and the 15th/16th-century Italian painting, cradles a moment of peace. The child, like the sleeping infant in Reni's 17th-century work, is lulled into slumber, oblivious to the world. The Muses Euterpe, Polyhymnia, Calliope, and Terpsichore watch over this scene, their presence a testament to the power of art to capture and preserve the beauty of everyday life. In the performance titled 'Tired,' we too are invited to rest our eyes on this sleeping child, as depicted by Ronald Ruthven Leslie-Melville at Artokoloro, and find solace in the simple joys of motherhood and the innocence of childhood.
