The captivating print titled "N: Shipwrecks, rescuing your brothers is the first duty" depicts a scene from the 19th century French moral alphabet in action. This lithograph, created by Lemercier, Benard et Cie in Paris around 1840, showcases a powerful message of virtue and compassion.

It serves as a reminder that helping others should always be our top priority. The composition also highlights the importance of education and learning. A woman can be seen among the rescuers, challenging traditional gender roles and emphasizing that knowledge knows no boundaries. The presence of men and youth further emphasizes the universal responsibility to lend aid when disaster strikes. This artwork not only showcases maritime scenes but also symbolizes broader themes such as morality and humanity's capacity for empathy. Through its detailed depiction of injuries sustained during the shipwreck, it reminds us of the fragility of life and how crucial medical assistance is in times of crisis.
