Her Daughter's Legacy. by Arthur Hacker, from the Royal Academy Exhibition, 1881. Engraving of a painting depicting...a pathetic story of humble family life, suggested... as well by the title as by the figures of the sleeping child and the aged woman - certainly the grandmother - who is watching his slumber with an air of sorrowful tenderness, of resigned despondency, that comes from long meditation upon her lost daughter's untimely fate. We are led to imagine that the mother of this innocent little boy has been tempted...to stray from the path of womanly virtue, and has, after experiencing the common lot of betrayal and desertion, returning broken-hearted... died of grief and shame. Her only parent and only friend has taken charge of the little one, and has cherished him, in the loneliness and poverty of her widowhood...with the same fondness, though not with the same pride and joy, as if he had been the son of...a respectable and happy marriage. It is a...common story...full of deep moral interest, and it is eloquent in reproof of that basest form of vicious selfishness which leaves others to suffer, of the weaker sex, and obliges them to bear the sore burden of consequences, from mutual wrong-doing, unprotected and uncared for'.
