This print captures a piece of history in the form of Shaftesbury's Barrow, originally purchased by Lord Shaftesbury himself when he was enrolled as a London costermonger in 1875. The barrow is not just a simple cart used for selling goods, but rather a symbol of reform and social change championed by Lord Shaftesbury during his time.
Lord Shaftesbury, known for his tireless efforts to improve the lives of the working class and enact positive changes in society, saw the potential in this humble barrow to make a statement and create awareness about the struggles faced by costermongers at that time. By purchasing and using this barrow, he not only showed solidarity with those who worked tirelessly on the streets of London but also brought attention to their plight.
The scenes depicted in this historical photograph speak volumes about Lord Shaftesbury's commitment to social reform and his dedication to making a difference in the lives of others. It serves as a reminder of how one person's actions can have a lasting impact on society as a whole.
