When you share your last crust of bread with a beggar, you mustn‘t behave as if you were throwing a bone to a dog. You must give humbly, and thank him for allowing you to have a part in his hunger.
Giovanni Guareschi (Italian journalist and author, 1908 - 1968)
[PLEASE NOTE: We are seeking further examples for this exhibition and would be particularly interested in Daguerreotypes, ambrotypes, albumen prints and tintypes depicting beggars.]
