EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming photograph, titled "Cheery Families - Mrs. Sole the Shoemaker's Wife," captures a delightful moment of relaxation and camaraderie among a Victorian-era family. The scene takes place in the cozy confines of their humble abode, located on Bunhill Row in London during the 1890s. The image, taken by renowned photographer Richard Doyle, showcases a woman, believed to be Mrs. Sole, sitting in the foreground, her apron adorned with floral patterns, as she engages in a lively game of cards with her children. The atmosphere is cheerful and filled with joy, as the children, dressed in their Sunday best, eagerly participate in the game, their expressions full of excitement and anticipation. In the background, a shoemaker's last and various pieces of shabby footwear are visible, hinting at the family's livelihood. This heartwarming snapshot offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the simple pleasures and close-knit relationships that defined family life during the Victorian era.
