EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, showcasing the Salvation Army's presence in Sunderland during 1884. Painted by J. Gillis Brown, an esteemed artist from the region, this oil on canvas artwork measures 91.5x61 cm and is currently housed at the Sunderland Museum & Winter Gardens in Tyne & Wear, UK. The scene depicted here takes place at Numbers Garth, a small square of houses nestled between High Street West and the River Wear. It showcases a group of Salvation Army members diligently selling their newspaper War Cry to passersby. Founded by General Booth in 1865 as a religious, educational, and anti-poverty movement, the Salvation Army focused its efforts on impoverished urban areas where alcohol had inflicted great damage upon working-class lives. J. Gillis Brown was renowned for his ability to capture everyday life scenes with remarkable detail and authenticity. In this painting, he skillfully portrays not only the Salvation Army members but also the bustling street filled with onlookers and spectators going about their daily routines. This historic snapshot offers us a glimpse into late 19th-century town life in Sunderland—a time when shops lined high streets and community interactions were abundant. As we admire this masterpiece from Bridgeman Images' collection through Fine Art Finder, let us appreciate both its artistic value and its portrayal of an organization dedicated to uplifting those affected by poverty while providing spiritual guidance to all who sought it
