EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by York & Son takes us back to the hauntingly beautiful village of Eyam in Derbyshire, England. The image captures a row of quaint stone houses that witnessed one of history's most devastating outbreaks - the Great Plague of 1665. Eyam gained fame for its extraordinary act of self-isolation during the plague, as depicted in this photograph. In an admirable display of courage and heroism, the villagers decided to cut off all contact with neighboring communities in order to prevent further spread of infection. Tragically, after enduring 16 months under these extreme measures, only 83 out of the original 350 inhabitants survived. The image showcases a seventeenth-century cottage with its front door standing as a symbol of resilience against disease. It serves as a reminder not only of Eyam's tragic past but also highlights the strength and determination exhibited by its people during those dark times. Through this monochrome snapshot, we are transported into an era where health was fragile and survival required immense bravery. The print from Hutchinsons Britain Beautiful offers us a glimpse into Eyam's historic significance within British heritage. As we observe this powerful image captured between 1924-1926, it is impossible not to feel moved by the stories etched onto these walls and appreciate both the beauty and tragedy that coexist within our shared human history.
