Admin history: Tom Curr, a Scottish artist, was commissioned by the London Missionary Society to produce another painting, "Follow Me" in 1935. That illustration of Christ leading a group of children of different races along a road, went on to became a hugely popular Sunday School picture, and was also distributed in the USA and Canada. Tom Curr's work followed on from the success of Harold Copping's "Hope of the World", commissioned by the London Missionary Society in 1915. Copping died in 1932.
