Description
Photograph of the painting "Suffer Little Children to Come unto Me" by Fritz von Uhde, depicting children coming to Jesus inside a house, [s.d.]. Christ sits barefoot in a chair to the right, dressed in robes. His hands are turned palms-up at his sides to welcome the children who group to him, tended by adults who seem as though they are the keepers of an orphanage. A hearth is visible without a fire to the left, while two windows can be seen in the background, sunlight pouring in. Painted 1884.
