EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving transports us back to 19th century London, offering a glimpse into the reality of poverty-stricken neighborhoods. The image showcases the model lodging houses in Eagle Court, known as the Strand Buildings, which were designed to provide social housing for those living in dire conditions. The intricate details of the engraving bring to life the architectural beauty of these buildings amidst a backdrop of bustling street scenes. It is evident that great care was taken in constructing these lodgings, with their elegant facades standing tall against the hardships faced by their inhabitants. As we study this print, we are reminded of the stark contrast between wealth and destitution that defined Victorian society. The model lodging houses represented hope for those trapped in poverty, offering them a chance at improved living conditions within an otherwise unforgiving city. Published in the Illustrated London News on March 28th, 1857, this historical artifact serves as both a testament to human resilience and a reminder of our duty to address social inequality. Through its powerful imagery and rich historical context, this print invites us to reflect upon how far we have come while acknowledging that there is still work to be done in creating inclusive communities for all.
