EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Dustman (colour litho)" showcases the work and character of a late nineteenth-century dustman in London. The image, created by H. W. Petherick in the 19th century, is part of a private collection. The dustman, depicted in vibrant colors through lithography, represents one of the many trades that existed during this era. With his worn-out clothes and dirt-covered face, he embodies the hardworking life of those who dealt with rubbish and waste management in Victorian London. This artwork was originally featured as an illustration for "London Characters" a popular series called Aunt Louisa's London Toy Books published by Frederick Warne around 1880. It provides us with a glimpse into the daily routine and hygiene challenges faced by these unsung heroes who kept the city clean amidst its bustling streets. The photograph captures not only the physical labor involved but also highlights how society viewed certain occupations during that time period. Through this image, we are reminded of both the abundance of filth present on London's streets and the dedication required to maintain cleanliness. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, it serves as a powerful reminder of our progress in sanitation practices while honoring those who played crucial roles in shaping our modern cities.
