Description
""Consider the Lilies"". An exterior view showing a species of lily growing in the scrubland. The title is referencing a quote from the bible, from Luke 12:27, ‘Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.’ The image is part of a collection associated with the mission at Mihecani, Lomwe in Portuguese East Africa. ❧ From a Photograph Album of the Blantyre Mission, Nyasaland [Malawi] and the Mihecani Mission, Portuguese East Africa [Mozambique].
