The Visit to Bethany - painted by A. B. Clay - from the Exhibition of the National Institution, 1856. Engraving of a painting: '...a sober and judicious rendering of a solemn passage in Scripture. Christ sits in the midst, with his hand resting on the head of Mary, who is seated at the Saviour's feet. There is an air of great simplicity and innocence in her face. That of Martha is not deficient in expression; it bespeaks that the rebuke, "Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things," &c., has taken effect, and awakened her to the vanity of earthly cares. The colouring is harmonious and delicate; and the idea of representing the walls as covered with matting after the Eastern fashion is appropriate and successful'. From "Illustrated London News", 1856.
