EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a piece of British history dating back to the early 1900s - the Biddenden Maids Charity. The image showcases two elderly women dressed in traditional attire, known as the Biddenden Maids, who were believed to be conjoined twins. Legend has it that these sisters lived in the village of Biddenden in Kent during the 12th century and upon their passing, left instructions for an annual charity to be established in their name.
The custom of distributing bread and cheese to villagers on Easter Monday continues to this day, making it one of Britain's oldest charitable traditions. The photograph provides a rare glimpse into this unique cultural practice, offering viewers a window into a bygone era.
Through this historical snapshot, we are reminded of the importance of community support and generosity towards those less fortunate. The enduring legacy of the Biddenden Maids Charity serves as a testament to human kindness and compassion that transcends time.
Mary Evans Picture Library has beautifully preserved this moment in history through their expertly curated collection of prints. This particular image is not just a visual representation but also a poignant reminder of our shared heritage and commitment to helping others in need.
