EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Rent Day" captured by John Leech in 1855, we are transported to a poverty-stricken cellar where tenants struggle to make ends meet. The image depicts a landlord being denied admittance into the cramped space that is shared by these destitute individuals and some unexpected roommates. As our eyes wander through the frame, we notice a donkey standing alongside humans, rats scurrying about, and even a duck adding an element of surprise to this unconventional living arrangement. These animals serve as poignant reminders of the dire circumstances faced by these impoverished residents who have resorted to sharing their meager shelter with domestic creatures. The black and white composition enhances the starkness of their existence, emphasizing the harsh realities of life in this slum. With its horizontal orientation, every detail is meticulously captured - from worn-out clothing to weary expressions on both male and female faces. This thought-provoking artwork invites us to reflect upon themes of social inequality and economic hardship prevalent during that era. It serves as a powerful reminder that poverty knows no boundaries or species distinctions; it affects all living beings within its grasp. Displayed here courtesy of Hulton Archive/Getty Images, this photograph transports us back in time while simultaneously urging us not to forget those who continue facing similar struggles today.
