This painting of a young woman breastfeeding an old man in a prison cell was sold for 30 million Euros. The painting may look perverse but the story behind is from historical records and breathtaking!

The poor man was sentenced to "death by starvation" for stealing a loaf of bread during the reign of Louis XIV in France. The woman was his only daughter and the only visitor to his cell. She was allowed to visit him daily but was frisked thoroughly such that no food was taken in.

When after 4 months the man still survived with no weight loss, the authorities were perplexed and started spying on his daughter's actions in the cell. To their utter astonishment, they found her breastfeeding her father to the fullest, sharing her baby's milk. The judges then realizing the compassion and love of the woman for her father, pardoned the father and set him free.

This piece of history brings into focus how deep is a woman's compassion in our daily lives that men often tend to overlook. God bless our women! God bless our daughters!

Perversely touching!

Better hunger never waya you before...

Story had it that the man continued drinking the milk after he was released so he won't still die of starvation.

It was not the breast milk that sustained the man but the compassion of the daughter

Really touching

For where you get your source abi ingredients

Human milk is amazing. It is a baby’s first meal, and contains all the essential, nourishing ingredients they need. As well as water, milk contains all three primary macronutrients: fat, carbohydrate and protein1. But there’s more. Within this mix, the third largest component is an ingredient that is, bizarrely, indigestible2. It turns out that this ingredient — a class of molecules called human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) — is not there to feed the baby at all.

Moral of the story.
Father to child sacrifice.
Daughter to father sacrifice.

TOUCHING

Her baby milk or your milk....�

Is compassion food? How will you say its not the breast milk that survived the old man? If compassion can survive someone, Jack of titanic could have survived

Wow, this is a really interesting piece

Atleast for once...I learnt something meaningful here ...

You might be suprised that these story might be made up to promote incest.

All i see here is a woman breastfeeding her husband who was locked up in prison.
