At the Earthing of a Felo-de-se
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and haunting image that transports us back to the dark underbelly of 19th-century London. The print, created by Alfred Concanen, depicts a scene from James Greenwood's book "The Wilds of London" showcasing the gritty reality of life in the East End. In this evocative lithograph, we are transported to a moonlit night where a group of working-class diggers can be seen laboring in shallow graves. Their silhouettes blend with the darkness as they solemnly carry out their grim task - burying those who have taken their own lives, known as felo-de-se. The composition exudes an eerie atmosphere, emphasizing the stark contrast between light and shadow. The dimly lit graves serve as a metaphor for society's neglect towards its most vulnerable members. It speaks volumes about class divisions and sheds light on the harsh realities faced by those living in poverty-stricken areas like London's East End during this time period. Concanen's skillful use of color adds depth to this poignant scene. The muted tones evoke feelings of melancholy and despair while simultaneously drawing attention to the resilience and strength exhibited by these hardworking individuals. This powerful image serves as both a historical document and an artistic masterpiece, capturing not only an important moment in time but also shedding light on societal issues that still resonate today.
