EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "One Touch of Nature" by the English School in the 19th century captures a poignant contrast between two nations. The image showcases a bustling street scene, where a destitute girl is seen sweeping the snow-covered ground with a broom, surrounded by poverty and hardship. In stark juxtaposition, we see an affluent young girl passing by, clutching her doll tightly as she remains sheltered from the cold reality outside. The composition beautifully portrays the innocence of childhood against the harsh realities of life during Victorian times. The seller's expression reveals resilience amidst adversity while trying to make ends meet. This thought-provoking artwork was originally published in The Graphic Christmas Number in 1879, serving as a reminder that even during festive seasons like Christmas, not everyone experiences joy and abundance. "One Touch of Nature" invites us to reflect on societal disparities and reminds us that compassion knows no boundaries. It serves as a timeless testament to human nature's ability to empathize and connect across different walks of life. This evocative piece from Bridgeman Images transports viewers back in time, allowing them to contemplate how far society has come since then while also acknowledging that there is still work to be done towards creating equal opportunities for all children around the world.
