The image captures Mr Joseph Parker, husband of Mrs Janet Parker, who was suspected to have contracted the deadly disease. Confined within the walls of his Kings Norton home, Mr Parker's worried expression tells a tale of uncertainty and fear. The 1970s marked a significant era in medical history as diseases and viruses posed serious threats to public health. Smallpox, notorious for its high mortality rate, had resurfaced once again. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the devastating impact such outbreaks can have on individuals and communities alike. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, it is impossible not to ponder upon the resilience and strength displayed by those affected during these trying times.

This print by RH encapsulates not only a moment in history but also serves as a testament to human endurance amidst adversity. It prompts us to reflect on our own vulnerabilities while appreciating the advancements made in healthcare since then.
