Bark Does Family Father Foreigners Gesture Invited Jan Luyken Mercy Night Quiet Show Stay Stranger Surprised Traveler Verse Works Ensures Hostels Welcoming

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Foreigners hostels, Jan Luyken, Gerrit de Broen (Sr. ), in or after 1695 - c. 1740" we are transported back in time to witness a heartwarming scene of hospitality and compassion. The image captures a traveler who has been surprised by the warm invitation to stay with a Dutch family for the night. The father of the household extends a welcoming gesture, ensuring that the stranger feels safe and at home under their roof. The son looks on with curiosity as his family assures him that this visitor is indeed trustworthy. Even their loyal dog remains quiet, sensing the peaceful intentions of this foreign guest. This picture beautifully depicts one of the seven acts of mercy: sheltering strangers (hospes colligitur). It reminds us that regardless of our differences or origins, we all have an innate duty to extend kindness and understanding towards those in need. Jan Luyken and Gerrit de Broen Sr. , through their artistic works, capture not only the physical aspects but also the emotional essence behind these foreigners' hostels. Their attention to detail ensures that every welcoming gesture is portrayed vividly within this piece. As we gaze upon this photograph print from Quint Lox's Liszt Collection, let us be inspired by its message: no matter where we come from or what language we speak, showing mercy towards foreigners should always be an integral part of our humanity.
