EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the entrance to Middlesex Hospital on Mortimer Street in London during the year 1908. The imposing red-brick facade of the hospital stands tall against the backdrop of a grey, overcast sky, as a group of onlookers, mostly children, gather at the gates. Their curious expressions and the sense of anticipation in their body language suggest that they may be waiting for someone or something. The presence of a hansom cab parked to the side of the scene adds a touch of nostalgia, reminding us of a time when horse-drawn carriages were a common mode of transportation. The horse, harnessed and ready to go, seems oblivious to the commotion around it. Middlesex Hospital, founded in 1745, was one of the largest voluntary hospitals in London, renowned for its pioneering work in various medical fields. However, it also had a darker side as a workhouse, where those who could not afford to pay for medical care or were paupers were admitted. The hospital's workhouse was a place of last resort for the poor and destitute, and the sight of people waiting at the gates was a common one. Despite the somber context, there is a sense of hope and wonder in this image, as if the children are eagerly anticipating a brighter future. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the past, offering a glimpse into the lives of those who sought refuge and care at Middlesex Hospital during a time when medical treatment was a luxury that not everyone could afford.
