EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the scene of two intrepid siblings, a scruffy street urchin and her younger brother, making their way through the bustling streets of Paris during the late 19th century. The children, dressed in tattered clothing, expertly navigate the crowded sidewalks, their pet dog faithfully following at their heels. In the pram they push, a jumbled assortment of old rags and iron objects is piled high, secured with strings and filled to the brim. The air is thick with the cacophony of voices, as the siblings call out to potential customers, "Rags, old iron for sale!" Their energetic and determined demeanor belies the harsh realities of their young lives, as they eke out a living in the bustling city. This historical image offers a poignant glimpse into the past, providing a vivid portrayal of the grit and resilience of children in an era long gone by.
