EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "A house of refuge" takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th-century London. The image is an illustration from the book "Londres" by Louis Enault, published in 1876. Engraved by Paul Jonnard-Pacel, this evocative piece captures the essence of poverty and destitution that plagued the city during that era. In this scene, a group of elderly individuals huddles together at the entrance of a dilapidated building. Their worn-out clothes and tired expressions tell stories of hardship and struggle. This depiction transports us to a time when homelessness was rampant, exploiting those who had fallen on hard times. The engraving's stark contrast between light and shadow adds depth to its portrayal of urban squalor. The presence of beggars with their sticks emphasizes their desperation for survival amidst harsh conditions. It is reminiscent of Charles Dickens' tales, reflecting the social injustices prevalent during Victorian London. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are reminded not only of the hardships faced by these forgotten souls but also how far society has come since then. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder to appreciate our present circumstances while acknowledging our responsibility towards creating a more compassionate world for all.
