EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and poignant print from Mary Evans Picture Library captures the heart-wrenching story of an unmarried mother and her baby in 1887. Titled "Unmarried Mum / Daughter (Betrayed)," the image portrays the harsh reality faced by women who were cast out of society for not conforming to societal norms.
The mother's expression is one of sorrow and betrayal, as she holds her precious baby close to her chest. The daughter, innocent and unaware of the judgment surrounding them, looks up at her mother with trust and love.
This historical piece serves as a reminder of the struggles faced by single mothers throughout history, often ostracized and abandoned by their communities. It sheds light on the stigma attached to unwed mothers, forcing them into isolation and hardship.
Despite the adversity they face, this mother-daughter duo stands strong together, united in their bond and resilience. Their story is a testament to the strength of maternal love and determination in the face of adversity.
Through this evocative image, Mary Evans Prints Online invites us to reflect on our own perceptions of family, motherhood, and societal expectations. It challenges us to empathize with those who have been marginalized and cast aside simply for being true to themselves.
