EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a poignant moment in history as Helene-Louise de Mecklenburg-Schwerin, Duchess d Orleans (1814-1858) and her son, the Count of Paris (1838-1894), visit a Parisian asylum room. The scene unfolds on a stage where the two protagonists are presented with children from a charitable institution. These young ones, aged between two and six years old, have parents who cannot care for them. In this heartwarming image, some of the children can be seen waving the tricolor flag, symbolizing hope and unity. It is evident that despite their circumstances, these little ones still possess an innocent joy that shines through. Painted by Jules Laure in 1841, this artwork measures 0.42x0.6 meters and is housed at Musee Carnavalet in Paris. The painting beautifully captures the compassion and empathy shown by Helene-Louise de Mecklenburg-Schwerin as she interacts with these vulnerable children. This photograph taken by Photo Josse brings to life an important historical moment when individuals like Helene-Louise de Mecklenburg-Schwerin recognized the need for philanthropy and actively sought to make a difference in society. It serves as a reminder of our collective responsibility to care for those less fortunate and highlights how acts of kindness can bring light into even the darkest corners of our world.
