They found a naked child upon the sands 1913

Eleanor Fortescue-Brickdale's 1913 painting, "They found a naked child upon the sands", depicts a somber scene of two figures, likely from a biblical story. One figure, clad in a hooded cloak, carries a naked child, while the other, an elderly woman with a staff, looks on with concern. Brickdale, known for her intricate details and Pre-Raphaelite style, uses soft color palettes and graceful lines to create a sense of melancholy and spirituality. The scene evokes a sense of wonder, mystery, and the fragility of life.
