Of course, corrupted as I am, I'm seeing him taking the slippers away

I mean, what is he doing?

Assuming he's returning her slippers why not just hand them to her instead of leaning down like he's going to put them on?

Just seems like there are better examples of people doing "good" things than returning footwear.

It is a good thing what this man did. I don't know there exists a codex of how to make slippers as a present or how to properly hand them over... Don't try to find a grain of salt in every lake... Or however this proverb goes :/

Is this a famous picture with some established story? Like I understand the message and I think it's uplifting and all but I don't understand what's going on in the picture.

The man took his shoes off and is giving them to the women because she has none

Nah, it's very unclear. Could be the man offering her slippers and she's frustrated (hence facepalm) at him since she chose to walk bare-foot.

She probably doesn't understand what's happening. Hes showing her, 'these shoes go on your feet'
