EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century, titled "A pauper lad nearly buried alive by two playmates in a workhouse orchard" depicts a scene filled with juvenile terror and anguish. The image showcases three young boys in an orchard, but their innocent appearance belies the horror that unfolds before our eyes. Two of the boys, driven by some monstrous impulse, are seen burying their unfortunate playmate alive. The lad's face is etched with fear and anxiety as he struggles against his impending burial. The artist masterfully captures every detail of this macabre moment, evoking a sense of dread and disbelief within viewers. The setting itself adds to the eerie atmosphere - an orchard within a workhouse compound. This juxtaposition between nature's beauty and man-made suffering heightens the emotional impact of the scene. As we gaze upon this engraving, we cannot help but feel both repelled and fascinated by these fictional characters' actions. It serves as a reminder of how even children can possess monstrous tendencies when pushed to extremes. This print from Bridgeman Images transports us back to Victorian times when such dark themes were explored through art. It forces us to confront our own fears while marveling at the artist's ability to capture such raw emotion on paper.
