The Poor Mother painting
"The Poor Mother" is an oil painting by French artist Hugues Merle (1822–1881), renowned for his depictions of sentimental and moral subjects, particularly scenes of mothers and children. The painting portrays a young mother holding her child, embodying themes of maternal affection and the instinct to protect one's offspring amidst hardship. Merle's meticulous attention to detail and emotional depth in this work have often led to comparisons with his contemporary, William-Adolphe Bouguereau.
