Proyecto para el monumento a D. Juan Telesforo de Arteche. Asociación Vizcaína de Caridad. Pastel y tempera sobre papel, 1950. Donación de Doña Concepción Gobantes. Obra del escultor Joaquin Lucarini (Álava 1905 – Burgos 1969).

The allegory of Charity in the form of a woman breastfeeding or caring for several children is very common in art, the works sometimes being referred to as "Alma Parens" (Latin for "nurturing mother" or "protective mother").

Charity is a Christian virtue, opposed to hatred and animosity. It is one of the three theological virtues along with Faith and Hope. Defined in the words of Christ: "You shall love ... your neighbour as yourself" (Matt 19:19 and 22:39, Mark 12:31 and Luke 10:27), St. Paul equates it with Love and defines it as superior in excellence to the other two virtues (1 Cor 13:13).
