EDITORS COMMENTS
This colored engraving, titled "The Departure (Second Class), pub. 1857" takes us back in time to the Victorian era. The image showcases a poignant farewell scene within the confines of a train carriage compartment. A mother and her young son are depicted, surrounded by their luggage, as they bid goodbye to their loved ones. The interior of the carriage exudes an air of modesty, reflecting the lower classes' travel experience during that period. The widow's somber expression hints at a possible journey filled with uncertainty and perhaps even sorrow. As we observe this historical snapshot, it becomes evident that public transport played a significant role in connecting people from different walks of life. This particular scene highlights how individuals from diverse backgrounds shared common spaces on trains, fostering interactions between passengers who may not have otherwise crossed paths. Abraham Solomon's masterful engraving captures intricate details such as the boy's bonnet and the carefully arranged luggage. These elements add depth to the composition while providing insight into daily life during this era. "The Departure (Second Class)" invites viewers to reflect upon themes of family bonds, separation, and societal dynamics prevalent in Victorian society. It serves as both an artistic representation and a historical document showcasing an important mode of transportation that shaped lives during this transformative period.
