EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures a poignant scene from London in 1873. Titled "Under the Arches" it depicts a group of destitute homeless people seeking shelter under a bridge. The image, originally an engraving by Gustave Dore, showcases the harsh reality faced by many during this late Victorian era. The composition is strikingly emotive as it portrays men huddled together, finding solace in their collective struggle against poverty. Despite the darkness of the night, there is a sense of resilience emanating from these individuals who have been left on society's fringes. The bridge itself serves as both a physical barrier and symbolic representation of the divide between those with privilege and those without. It stands tall and imposing above them, casting shadows that further emphasize their marginalized existence. Dore's meticulous attention to detail brings this historical moment to life. From the worn-out clothing to weary expressions etched on each face, every element contributes to conveying the hardship endured by these forgotten souls. This print serves as a stark reminder of our shared responsibility towards addressing homelessness and social inequality even today. It invites viewers to reflect upon how far we have come since 1873 while acknowledging that there is still much work ahead in creating a more compassionate society for all.
