"I was hungered and ye gave me meat; —naked and ye clothed, me." Matthew XXV: 35–36 (from Sketchbook)
The image shows a pencil sketch of a group of people in a room. The scene depicts several individuals gathered around a table and sitting on the floor. A woman and child are on the right side. A man and woman are standing, and another person is near a doorway on the left. The room appears to have a simple interior with minimal furnishings. There is a large pot on the right side. Some text is written at the bottom, which appears to be a biblical quote.
