EDITORS COMMENTS
by John Collet is a captivating snapshot of a historical institution dedicated to providing care and support for those with hearing impairments. This photo print, housed at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, UK, takes us back to a time when compassion and understanding towards individuals with disabilities were beginning to take root. The image showcases a bustling courtyard filled with people from all walks of life. Amongst the crowd, we see individuals holding ear trumpets - an early form of assistive device used by the deaf community to amplify sounds. Their presence highlights both the challenges faced by those living with hearing loss and society's efforts to accommodate their needs. Collet's composition skillfully captures the sense of community within this unique establishment. The diverse group gathered in the courtyard reflects unity amidst diversity as they engage in conversation or simply enjoy each other's company. It serves as a poignant reminder that even though communication may differ among individuals, human connection remains universal. This print not only immortalizes an important piece of history but also sheds light on how far we have come in terms of inclusivity and accessibility for people with disabilities. It encourages us to appreciate our progress while acknowledging that there is still work to be done in ensuring equal opportunities for all members of society.
