EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Rabbit-pulling (engraving)" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the harsh living conditions endured by the poor in England. The image, created by Frederick L. Bernard, is an illustration for George R Sims' book "How The Poor Live" published in 1883. The portrait depicts a woman pulling a rabbit out of her pocket, highlighting the desperate measures people had to resort to in order to secure their next meal. In Victorian London, poverty was rampant and food scarcity was a pressing issue for many families struggling to survive. The engraving serves as a powerful reminder of the appalling state of affairs during that era. It showcases not only the physical hardship faced by individuals but also sheds light on larger societal issues such as inequality and limited access to basic necessities. As we observe this poignant scene from history, it becomes evident that this image transcends borders; it represents not just English society but also echoes similar struggles experienced across Europe. It serves as a stark reminder of how far we have come in terms of improving living conditions and ensuring adequate food supply for all. This print from Bridgeman Images captures both the misery endured by those living in poverty and acts as an important historical document reflecting British culture at that time.
