EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print titled "A Journal of the Plague Year, 1665" takes us back to a haunting period in history - the Great Plague of London. Created by an anonymous English artist from the 17th century, this frontispiece engraving serves as a visual memorial and observation of one of humanity's darkest times. The image depicts a scene filled with despair and uncertainty. The bubonic plague, symbolized by skeletal figures and ominous clouds, looms over the cityscape. It is a chilling reminder of the devastating impact that disease can have on society. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are transported into the pages of a diary or account documenting life during this harrowing time. The intricate details captured in each stroke tell stories of loss, resilience, and survival. This litho print serves as both a testament to human endurance and an important historical record. It invites us to reflect on our own experiences with pandemics and reminds us that throughout history, communities have faced similar challenges together. Preserved within private collections today, this artwork continues to serve as a powerful reminder of our shared past. Its presence evokes emotions ranging from fear to hope - reminding us not only of our vulnerability but also our capacity for strength in times of adversity.
