EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in late 19th century Paris, transports us back in time to a world of hardship and despair. The image features a couple of Breton beggars, their weathered faces telling tales of struggle and survival. The unknown photographer skillfully captures the essence of misery and poverty that plagued many during this era. The couple's worn-out clothing and tired expressions speak volumes about their daily struggles to make ends meet. Their eyes seem to hold stories untold, reflecting the harsh realities they faced as paupers in France. Yet, there is also an undeniable strength emanating from them - a resilience that enabled them to endure against all odds. Photography was still relatively new at the time this picture was taken, making it even more remarkable for its ability to freeze these fleeting moments forever. It serves as a powerful reminder of the human condition and the disparities that existed within society. Preserved in Leonard de Selva's private collection, this photograph offers us a glimpse into history through its raw portrayal of life on the streets of Paris. It stands as a testament to both the artistry behind early photography and our collective responsibility to address social inequality. As we gaze upon this haunting portrait today, let us remember those who came before us - those whose lives were marked by struggle but whose spirit remained unbroken amidst adversity.
