Hark, the Dogs do Bark - A Historical Tableau of Charity and Protection
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from the Mary Evans Picture Library, two young girls, dressed in Victorian attire, stand at a distance from a bustling town scene. Their eyes are fixed on the crowd before them, where a motley assembly of beggars, some clad in rags and others in tags, approach the town's entrance. The girls' expression is one of watchful caution, as their small terrier, its ears perked up and mouth open in a protective bark, stands between them and the approaching crowd. This image, titled "Hark, the Dogs do Bark," is a poignant snapshot of a historical moment, capturing the essence of the nursery rhyme that shares its name. The rhyme, which dates back to the 18th century, warns of the dangers that lurk in the town and the importance of staying vigilant and keeping a safe distance from strangers. The girls' prudent behavior, along with their dog's protective bark, underscores the importance of safety and security in an era when such concerns were of paramount importance. The photograph also highlights the stark contrast between the girls' privileged status and the poverty and destitution of the beggars. The girls' silken gowns and well-groomed dog stand in stark relief against the tattered clothes and ragged appearance of the beggars. The image serves as a reminder of the social and economic disparities that existed during this period, and the importance of empathy and compassion in the face of poverty and hardship. Overall, "Hark, the Dogs do Bark" is a captivating and thought-provoking image that transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the historical context of a beloved nursery rhyme and the complex social dynamics of the Victorian era.
