EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant print captures a moment in history when Russian Jews sought refuge in England, specifically in the Poor Jews Temporary Shelter on Leman Street in the East End of London. The image showcases a community of immigrants coming together to share a meal, highlighting their resilience and unity during times of hardship.
The year is 1890, and these Russian refugees have traveled far from their homeland in search of safety and opportunity. Despite facing poverty and uncertainty, they have found solace within this temporary shelter, where they can lean on one another for support.
This snapshot offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the Jewish immigrants who made Britain their new home. It serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by those forced to leave behind everything they know in pursuit of a better life.
Through this historical photograph, we are invited to reflect on the experiences of immigrants throughout time and appreciate the strength it takes to start anew in a foreign land. Mary Evans Picture Library has preserved this piece of history for us to learn from and honor the journeys taken by those who came before us.
