EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the cover of Eugene Sues' renowned book, "Les miseres des enfants found" dating back to the 19th century. The image showcases three children standing near a humble trailer in Paris, evoking a sense of both curiosity and sympathy. The scene depicted on the cover reflects the theme of poverty and hardship that permeates throughout Sue's literary masterpiece. These young individuals, seemingly abandoned by society, stand as poignant symbols of neglected childhoods and destitution. The French School's decorative arts expertise is evident in this beautifully engraved print. It skillfully conveys the nomadic nature of these children's lives through their makeshift habitat – a homemade coupling caravan that serves as their meager shelter. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to an era where pauperism was rampant among youth in France. Through Sue's powerful storytelling and social commentary, he sheds light on the plight faced by these forgotten souls. Photographed by ePhoto Josse with impeccable attention to detail, this historical artifact reminds us not only of our shared humanity but also serves as a reminder that there is still much work to be done in ensuring every child has access to basic necessities and opportunities for a brighter future.
