EDITORS COMMENTS
This colored engraving titled "Tim Besom" by the English School in the 19th century depicts a poignant scene that evokes both concern and reflection. The image, part of a private collection, portrays Tim Besom, a destitute man living on the streets of London. In this print, we witness the stark contrast between poverty and wealth as Tim Beggar stands with his worn-out clothes and pleading expression while surrounded by well-dressed individuals passing him by. The artist skillfully captures the lack of empathy from those who have more than enough to spare. The clear message conveyed through this engraving is one of charity and compassion towards those less fortunate. It serves as a reminder that even amidst bustling city life, there are people like Tim who struggle to survive day after day. "Mendicant" "tramp" and "vagabond" are words that come to mind when observing this powerful artwork. Through its detailed execution, it prompts us to question our own attitudes towards poverty and how we can make a difference in someone's life. Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder has once again provided us with an insightful glimpse into history through their vast collection. This particular print invites viewers to reflect upon societal disparities while reminding us of our collective responsibility to extend kindness and support to those in need.
