EDITORS COMMENTS
Cornelis Kruseman's moving painting, "Piety," created in the 1820s, captures the deep devotion and emotional connection between generations as an elderly man and woman teach their children and grandchildren the importance of prayer and faith. The oil on canvas work, held in the esteemed Rijksmuseum in the Netherlands, showcases the tender moments of a family coming together in prayer, with the elderly man and woman in solemn posture, their faces etched with the lines of age and wisdom. The young girl, dressed in a simple white dress, gazes up at her elders with a curious yet reverent expression, holding a rosary in her hands. The young boy, also kneeling, looks intently at his grandfather, his hands clasped in prayer. The older boys and girls, dressed in traditional Dutch clothing, sit respectfully, their eyes fixed on their elders, their expressions reflecting a sense of awe and reverence. The painting's rich colors and intricate details bring the scene to life, transporting the viewer back in time to witness this heartfelt moment of family devotion.
