EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph taken in the late 1910s, we see a scene of poverty and struggle unfolding in the streets of Dhule, India. A beggar, seemingly weak and frail, is being carried on a two-man litter by two bearers. The litter, known locally as a "dholie," is a common mode of transportation for the infirm and elderly in this region of Maharashtra State. Dhule is a city and a Municipal Corporation located in the northwestern part of Maharashtra State. The city, with its rich history and cultural heritage, has long been a hub of commerce and trade. However, this image serves as a stark reminder of the stark contrasts that exist within its boundaries. The two bearers, their faces etched with the marks of toil and hardship, lift the litter with poles balanced on their shoulders. Their expressions are stoic, a testament to the resilience and grit of the human spirit. The beggar, clad in tattered clothes, appears to be in a state of deep contemplation, his eyes closed as if lost in thought. This poignant image offers a glimpse into the past, a time when transportation was a communal effort, and the bonds of community and compassion were stronger than ever. It is a poignant reminder of the enduring human spirit and the need for empathy and compassion towards those less fortunate. The photograph, with its rich historical context, offers a unique perspective into the social fabric of India during the early 20th century. It is a powerful reminder of the past, a testament to the human spirit, and a call to action for a more compassionate and equitable world.
