"Home and the Homeless" is an oil painting by Scottish artist Thomas Faed, created in 1853. The artwork is a poignant example of Faed's genre paintings, which often depicted scenes of rural and domestic life, highlighting the social issues of his time. The painting measures 76.2 x 63.5 cm and is part of a private collection.

In "Home and the Homeless," Faed illustrates the stark contrast between the security of a family home and the plight of the homeless. The scene is set within a humble interior, where a family is gathered around a hearth, symbolizing warmth and stability. The focal point of the painting is the interaction between the family members and a homeless mother and child who seek refuge at their doorstep. The family's expressions of empathy and concern are juxtaposed with the despair and vulnerability of the homeless figures, creating a powerful commentary on the disparities within Victorian society.

Thomas Faed (1826–1900) was a prominent Victorian artist known for his narrative paintings that often addressed the social concerns of his era, such as poverty, emigration, and the lives of the working class. "Home and the Homeless" is considered one of his significant works, reflecting his ability to capture the emotional depth of his subjects while also engaging with the broader social discourse.

The painting has been exhibited in various art institutions and has been subject to critical analysis in the context of 19th-century British art. It is frequently cited in discussions of Faed's contributions to Victorian genre painting and his influence on contemporaneous artists. "Home and the Homeless" remains a compelling example of Faed's artistry and his commitment to portraying the human condition with sensitivity and realism.
