It is a picture to please, not excite
deickemeyer22 October 2016
A very pretty picture indeed. It shows us an artist (played by Mr. Henry Walthall) who is painting a picture of the Madonna. The daughter of the boarding-house keeper, rather slovenly in her dress, but very pretty, is posing for it. Miss Gertrude Robinson plays this part, and is most charmingly simple in it. Miss Fearnley plays a wealthy countess whom the artist thinks he loves. The boarding-house keeper's daughter loves him. He gets this poor girl to put on a very becoming dress and is so struck by her beauty that he falls in love with her. The picture's straightforward simplicity and sweetness give to it a special charm. It is a picture to please, not excite. It could be shown anywhere. We call it a commendable feature. - The Moving Picture World, April 13, 1912
