EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Hungry customers" by S. T. Dadd depicts a bustling street scene filled with hungry patrons and an abundance of feline companions. The image showcases a man pushing a hand cart, laden with tempting wares, as he becomes the center of attention for both humans and cats alike. The artist skillfully captures the desperation in the eyes of these starving customers, who eagerly surround the vendor's cart in search of sustenance. Their expressions tell tales of long-awaited meals and empty stomachs yearning to be filled. Meanwhile, mischievous cats weave through their legs, hoping to catch any morsel that may fall from their grasp. Published in 1881 within the pages of S&D (presumably an illustrated publication), this artwork offers us a glimpse into historical street life where food was scarce and survival was uncertain for many individuals. It serves as a poignant reminder of how basic human needs can bring together unlikely companionship between people and animals. Through this print, we are transported back in time to witness not only the struggles faced by those on the streets but also the resilience displayed by both humans and animals alike when faced with hunger. This thought-provoking piece invites us to reflect on our own relationship with food while appreciating art's ability to capture moments frozen in time.
