I remember seeing this everywhere in older peoples homes in Donegal.
It showed a small girl crying, facing a wall, with a dog standing close behind her. It looks like it's by Charles Burton Barber, but I'm more interested in why was it everywhere. Do other people remember this hanging in people's houses? Why was it so widespread?

There used to be a picture of a Girl Crying at my Uncle’s House…Really freaked me out as a Kid.
Not this but I remember the pair of pictures, a crying girl in one, a crying girl in the other.
Crying boy picture and crying girl picture together was meant to be cursed or some crazy shit. I mind when I was young my dad burning them in the back garden when he heard this.
Freemasons. Gnosis symbols all over it.
