"As to the Portrait of Ruth, we scruple not to say that it is drawn to the life, and by the hand of a master. And to persons of good taste we may say, it is like one of those historical paintings of West that will forever please; and to the Christian it is one that will heighten the flame of his piety on account of its connections with the Redeemer of the world and the church of the living God." - Preface.
