EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print titled "Londoners fleeing to the country to avoid the Plague, 1630" transports us back in time to a significant moment in history. The image depicts a scene of chaos and desperation as Londoners desperately try to escape the deadly grasp of the Plague that ravaged their city during the 17th century. The print showcases a multitude of individuals, families, and even horses racing towards safety in the countryside. Their expressions are filled with fear and urgency as they abandon their homes and livelihoods behind. In this desperate attempt for survival, people cram into carriages while others ride on horseback, all hoping to outrun death's relentless pursuit. Amidst this chaotic exodus stands an eerie reminder of mortality - a skeleton holding an hourglass. This haunting symbol serves as a stark reminder that time is running out for those affected by this devastating epidemic. The artist skillfully captures both the physicality of movement and emotional turmoil within this woodcut print. The intricate details highlight every aspect of this historical event: from facial expressions etched with despair to billowing clouds of dust kicked up by galloping horses. As we gaze upon this powerful artwork, we are reminded not only of humanity's resilience but also our vulnerability in times of crisis. It serves as a poignant testament to how communities come together when faced with unimaginable adversity – seeking solace and salvation beyond city walls.
