Lawrence Stephen Lowry became increasingly fascinated by cripples, misfits, and the standard down and out types later in his career. The point of the painting 'The Cripples' is not what the cripples are suffering from, but the way in which the healthy on-lookers, mostly children, gaze at them with curiosity. Lowry said, ÔI feel more strongly about these people than I ever did about the industrial scene. They are real people, sad people. I'm attracted to sadness and there are some very sad things. I feel like them.Õ It has been suggested that this is Lowry himself, who may have suffered from Asperger's syndrome. It is thought that he is the man walking the dog in the center of the painting. That he is depicted lost in thought, an emotional cripple, and dealing with his own problems, rather than staring at the physical cripples around him.

What is the story of the painting of peace?
To the best of my recolection the story went somthing like this: In the medieval times there was a king that wanted a painting in his room portrait representation of peace. He wanted to glance at it in bad times to become peacefully inside his soul so he declared a contest by decree to all paint artists in his kingdom to make a painting that resembled peace and the winner would have a good reward. All artists turned their work for the king to examine. The king saw a painting of a lake and children calmly wetting their feet in the lake. The next was that of a sea with no waves and a fisherman calmly sleeping in his boat. The next painting enraged the king. It was that of a storm. The king had thought someone was making fun at his authority and he was made to be brought forward before the king. It was an old man and the king asked him if he was making fun of him. He wanted paintings of peace and you bring a painting of a storm. The old man looked at the king in the eye and told him to look carefully in the painting. The king did so and he understood for there was a nest in the rocks of a cliff where the storm was passing through with a bird hugging the newly born. Indeed that was peace and the king declared this painting the winner by decree.
