The Middle Ages (45) : Crippled beggar

This series is an attempt to illustrate how life was going on in the Middle Ages.

Life must have been a real hell in poor and wretched conditions if you happened to be a crippled beggar !

It was assumed that diseases of the body resulted from sins of the soul……!

Photographed at medieval festival of castle Franchimont (Belgium).
