EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print captures the heart-wrenching reality of shelter for the homeless poor in the late 19th century East End of London. The image, created by Henry Herbert Bulman, showcases a scene from Bubbles, a book edited by Dr Barnardo that shed light on the plight of impoverished children during this era. In this illustration, we witness a crowded kitchen where destitute women and children gather to seek refuge and sustenance. The vibrant colors bring to life their hardship and misery as they rely on charity for their next meal. A young girl sits at a table with her head bowed down, her eyes filled with despair while clutching onto her plate of breakfast. Behind her stands another child, seemingly lost in thought amidst the chaos surrounding them. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every line and stroke evokes empathy towards these forgotten souls struggling to survive amidst poverty-stricken conditions. This poignant depiction serves as a reminder of the immense challenges faced by those living in extreme poverty during this period. Through this powerful artwork, Bulman not only highlights the dire circumstances endured by these individuals but also emphasizes the importance of philanthropy and acts of kindness towards those less fortunate. It serves as an enduring testament to our shared responsibility in addressing societal issues such as homelessness and poverty even today.
