EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "DORE: LONDON, 1873. Resting on the Bridge" takes us back to the late Victorian era in London. The wood engraving, skillfully created by Gustave Dore, is part of his renowned series called "London: A Pilgrimage" which was published in 1873. In this poignant scene, we see a bridge serving as both shelter and refuge for a destitute family. The image portrays the harsh reality of poverty that plagued many during this time period. A barefoot beggar woman sits with her ragged children nearby, while an infant sleeps soundly in her arms. Their worn-out clothing and tired expressions speak volumes about their daily struggles. The artist's attention to detail allows us to immerse ourselves in the scene; we can almost feel the weight of their despair and sadness. Despite their dire circumstances, there is a sense of unity within this family unit - they find solace together even amidst adversity. This wood engraving serves as a powerful reminder of the hardships faced by countless individuals living on London's streets during the late 19th century. It sheds light on societal issues such as homelessness and poverty that were prevalent at that time. As we reflect upon this image today, it prompts us to consider how far society has come in addressing these challenges while also reminding us not to forget those who still face similar struggles today.
