EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a young Janusz Korczak, circa 1888. The Polish photographer from the 19th century beautifully portrays the future physician, paediatrician, and writer in his childhood years. Janusz Korczak (1878-1942) would go on to become an influential figure known for his dedication to children's rights. In this portrait, we see a glimpse of the innocence and curiosity that would shape Korczak's life's work. His piercing gaze reflects intelligence beyond his years, hinting at the profound impact he would have on society. Korczak's passion for both medicine and literature shines through in this image. As a doctor, he dedicated himself to improving the physical health of children while advocating for their overall well-being. Simultaneously, as an accomplished writer and author, he used his words to shed light on social issues affecting children during turbulent times. Born in Poland but with a global perspective, Korczak became renowned not only within Europe but also throughout the world. His legacy extends far beyond borders as he left an indelible mark on humanity. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of Janusz Korczak's unwavering commitment to bettering the lives of children amidst war-torn realities.
