Christ Blessing the Little Children [Ask Us A Question] Title: Christ Blessing the Little Children Artist: Benjamin Robert Haydon Description: This picture was commissioned in 1837, from the ‘celebrated Haydon?- London painter, lecturer and tireless champion of High Art - for the Chapel of the Liverpool Blind Asylum. Built by John Foster in 1819, the neo-classical Chapel stood on the north western corner of Great Nelson (now Lord Nelson) Street and Duncan Street (part of which remains, now Hotham Street). Haydon’s painting was greeted with enthusiasm by the local press, not least because it offered a source of civic pride. ‘No distinguished town in England? trumpeted The Albion: ‘has set the example of wishing to revive public native art, by public employment, with anything like the spirit of Liverpool. It is surely no exaggeration to say, that, for the last hundred years, no commission to English historical painters has been given by any other city, or by any gentlemen or members of public bodies in any other part of the country. Vast have been the subscriptions for portraits of members and mayors, and the town-halls teem with them; but any subscriptions for any great work of imagination, of religious, patriotic, or local history, it would, we believe, puzzle the best disposed to discover... [We must encourage] genius in great works, of a large scale, with figures, passions, faces, and groups the size of nature, and exciting the public mind by their public impression. This is the art to be restored, and can only be restored by such commissions as the one given by the Blind Asylum Committee. Media: Genuine 100% Hand Painted Oil Paintings On Canvas.
