EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print titled "Poverty in late Victorian Britain" takes us back to the early 20th century, offering a poignant glimpse into the harsh realities faced by families and children during this time. The image, part of a private collection, was originally featured in Bubbles, a book edited by Dr Barnardo that shed light on the dire conditions experienced by those living in poverty. The scene depicts a bustling street where people from all walks of life coexist. A woman can be seen diligently doing laundry while her young child stands nearby. The vibrant colors used in the lithograph draw attention to their worn-out clothing and tired expressions, highlighting their struggle against destitution. In this era of great social inequality, acts of charity and philanthropy were crucial for survival. The print captures an atmosphere of friendship and camaraderie as individuals come together to help those less fortunate. It serves as a reminder that even amidst hardship, compassion can flourish. Through this powerful illustration, we are transported to an era defined by both despair and resilience. It prompts us to reflect on how far society has come since then while also urging us not to forget the struggles faced by our predecessors. This artwork is not just a historical artifact but also an important testament to human strength and solidarity in times of adversity.
