In the chapel built over the traditional carpenter shop of Joseph was a remarkable painting by a French artist, Joseph Le Font, which we admired exceedingly. This painting had only been here a year and a half, and is not, therefore, mentioned by any guide book. The scene is the carpenter's sh...op. Jesus, a boy of about twelve years, stands by a workbench making a cross.
Joseph, with saw in hand, stands on the other side looking on intently but seeming only to notice the progress the bright boy is making in learning the car- penter's trade. Mary, the mother, sits at the end of the bench, with loving face watching her son. Her face was the sweetest I have ever seen. Her look is one of gentle, strong, motherly affection, and yet there appeared to be much more in it than that. It is a look far beyond the present, in which the cross becomes a bitter reality, and her mother heart is yearning in its sorrow over her first born.
