EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the chaos and desperation of the Great Fire of London in September 1666. As flames engulf buildings in the background, a row of boats on the River Thames becomes a lifeline for those fleeing the devastation. Men and women scramble onto vessels, their faces etched with fear and uncertainty. The image is a snapshot of history, transporting us back to a time when fire ravaged the city and its inhabitants were forced to make split-second decisions for survival. The contrast between the calm waters of the river and the raging inferno behind them is stark, highlighting the urgency of escape. In this moment frozen in time by Hulton Archive, we witness ordinary people facing extraordinary circumstances. The men work frantically to push off from shore while women clutch children tightly to their chests, seeking safety on board. It's a scene that speaks volumes about human resilience in times of crisis. As we gaze upon this powerful photograph, we are reminded of both the fragility of life and our capacity for courage in adversity. The Great Fire may have left scars on London's landscape, but it also revealed the strength and solidarity of its people as they banded together to overcome tragedy.
