La Premiére Aumône: The First Alms
Grenier de Saint-Martin, Francisque-Martin-François, 1793-1867 · [ca. 1750–1920]
A man who is blind sits begging on a bench outside of a rural church as people pass by. The man has eyes closed, head bowed forward, and an outstretched hat. A woman holding baby leans forward so that the child can drop something into the man's hat. Text above reads "Musée Chrétien", or Christian Museum.
