About the piece
Painted in 1859 by Abraham Solomon, this masterpiece of Victorian narrative art depicts a family awaiting a legal judgment. Through masterful use of light and shadow, Solomon conveys a spectrum of emotion, from the despair of the elderly man to the innocence of the sleeping child, all set within a meticulously detailed institutional interior.
