EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "An Anti-Cholera Specific, washing the Streets round Covent Garden" transports us back to the bustling streets of London in 1894. The image depicts a scene of great importance during a time when public health was at stake. In this engraving by Henri Lanos, we witness an anti-cholera team diligently working to cleanse the streets of Covent Garden. With hoses in hand and determined expressions on their faces, these individuals are on a mission to combat sickness and ensure the well-being of their community. The energy emanating from this print is palpable as we imagine the sound of rushing water mixed with shouts and conversations echoing through the narrow alleys. It serves as a powerful reminder of how far society has come in terms of hygiene practices and disease prevention. Through this artwork, we are reminded that even during challenging times, people have always found ways to adapt and protect one another's health. This historical snapshot not only showcases an important moment in London's history but also highlights the collective effort required to overcome adversity. As we gaze upon this lithograph from our private collection, let us appreciate both its artistic beauty and its significance in preserving memories of past struggles against illness.
