EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant print captures the moment when a young orphan boy from the National Children's Homes and Orphanages in England is being sent away, with hopes of finding better opportunities in a new land. The year is circa 1908, a time when emigration was seen as a chance for a fresh start and improved prospects.
The expression on the boy's face is one of uncertainty mixed with hope. He stands ready to embark on his journey to Canada, leaving behind the only home he has ever known. It is a bittersweet moment, filled with both sadness at saying goodbye and excitement for what lies ahead.
As he prepares to leave for Hamilton or Halifax, he carries with him dreams of a new life filled with possibilities. The decision to send him away was not made lightly, but out of love and concern for his welfare.
In this image, we see the resilience and strength of children who have faced adversity at such a young age. Despite the challenges they have endured, they remain hopeful for brighter days ahead.
This photograph serves as a reminder of the importance of providing support and care for vulnerable children, ensuring that they have access to opportunities that will help them thrive and succeed in life.
