EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "The ragpickers of Paris" takes us back to the streets of 19th-century France. The illustration, originally featured in the illustrated supplement of Le Petit Journal on August 27th, 1892, offers a glimpse into the harsh reality faced by those living in poverty. In this scene, we witness a group of ragpickers - both men and women - along with their children. They are depicted outdoors, surrounded by makeshift huts and clotheslines filled with drying laundry. As night falls and the moon illuminates their humble surroundings, they gather around a stove to cook what little food they have managed to scavenge. The image evokes a sense of resilience amidst adversity as these individuals navigate their challenging circumstances. Despite facing extreme impoverishment and having limited resources at their disposal, they find ways to make do with what they have. It is impossible not to be moved by this poignant portrayal of life's hardships during that era. This photograph serves as a reminder that even in times when basic necessities were scarce for some members of society, there was still an unwavering determination to survive and provide for one's family. "The ragpickers of Paris" invites us to reflect upon our own privileges while acknowledging the strength and tenacity displayed by those who endured such difficult conditions over a century ago.
