мне особенно нравится акт милосердия к закованному в деревянную мебель - придти и почесать ему пятки

Поразительно!
Очень важные идеи.
Было хорошо узнать, что это за традиция, откуда взялась, где сохранялась?

В Рунете я ничего на эту тему не нашла- даже странно. А в западном искусстве- много и картин, и гравюр:http://www.artcyclopedia.com/scripts/tsearch.pl?t=seven+acts+of+mercy&type=2

Большое спасибо. Особенно интересны гравюры, на которых страдалец изображен в виде Христа.
Очень интересно узнать хронологию.
