EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting image captures a chilling moment in history - the diphtheria epidemic at Woolwich Common in 1875. The sketches of the diphtheria huts on the common serve as a stark reminder of the devastating impact of infectious diseases in the past. These huts were used to confine those who had been infected, highlighting the desperate measures taken to contain and control the spread of illness.
The scene depicted in this print is both historical and harrowing, offering a glimpse into a time when medical knowledge was limited and outbreaks like diphtheria could quickly become deadly. The dilapidated huts stand as silent witnesses to the suffering endured by those afflicted with this highly contagious disease.
As we look upon this image, we are reminded of the importance of public health measures and advancements in medicine that have since helped prevent such widespread epidemics. It serves as a sobering reflection on how far we have come in terms of understanding and combating infectious diseases.
This print from Mary Evans Prints Online is not just a piece of art but also a poignant historical document that sheds light on a dark chapter in our collective past. It urges us to remember those who suffered during times of epidemic outbreak and encourages us to continue striving for better healthcare practices for all.
