EDITORS COMMENTS
In the heart of East London, 1892: A woman, dressed in the traditional attire of the time, is seen startled by a dog as she walks beneath a ladder. The expression on her face speaks volumes of her fear and apprehension, as she hesitantly calls out to the dog, "Hi! Come back, yer silly! Do yer want to spile yer luck?" This scene captures the deep-rooted superstitions that once governed the daily lives of people in East London. Superstitions surrounding ladders and dogs were common beliefs in the 19th century. Walking under a ladder was considered bad luck, while a dog barking or following a person was believed to bring good fortune. In this photograph, the woman's fear of breaking the ladder superstition is evident, as she stops in her tracks and calls out to the dog, preventing any potential loss of luck. The image offers a glimpse into the rich history and folklore of East London, a place where such beliefs were deeply ingrained in the community. The woman's simple interaction with the dog serves as a reminder of the importance of superstitions in shaping the daily lives and beliefs of people in the past. This photograph, taken in 1892, is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a unique insight into the superstitions and traditions that once shaped the lives of people in East London. The image is a testament to the power of folklore and the enduring belief in the supernatural, even in the face of modernization and progress.
