EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a daring escape attempt by two young boys in 1882. The image depicts the boys climbing down a drainpipe in the dead of night, presumably trying to flee from their strict boarding school. The sense of danger and urgency is palpable as they carefully make their descent, with the warning "Go slow, whatever you do!" serving as a reminder of the risks involved. The historical significance of this photograph is evident, offering a glimpse into the challenges faced by children in boarding schools during that time period. It speaks to themes of rebellion, independence, and the desire for freedom that are universal across generations. The artistry in this image is striking, with shadows cast against the brick wall creating a sense of mystery and intrigue. The composition draws viewers in, inviting them to imagine what might happen next in this thrilling escape attempt. Overall, this print from Mary Evans Picture Library is not just a snapshot from history but also a powerful storytelling tool that evokes emotions and sparks curiosity about the lives of these brave young boys.
