“Mother and Child” has to be one of the most captivating, gripping, and truly beautiful photographs I’ve seen in a long time. The sheer simplicity combined with the most tender of moments between a mother and child is absolutely magnificent.

I’ve not seen the show but I must say they appear oddly haunting, intimate and touchingly beautiful. Its so nice to see something new in a museum, and something that seems classic but not cliched.
