EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant engraving captures the heart-wrenching reality of a poor homeless child desperately knocking on the door of a Dr Barnardos home. Created by an English School in the 19th century, this powerful image is part of a private collection and serves as a reminder of the harsh conditions faced by vulnerable children during that time. The illustration originally appeared in Bubbles, edited by Dr Barnardo, which was published around 1895. It showcases the charitable work undertaken by Dr Thomas John Barnardo, who dedicated his life to helping destitute children find shelter and support. The Childrens Bookroom in London played an instrumental role in disseminating these stories and raising awareness about child poverty. Set against a wintry backdrop, with snowflakes falling gently from above, this scene evokes both coldness and despair. The young boy depicted stands as a symbol for countless others facing similar hardships during that era. Through this engraving, we are reminded of the importance of philanthropy and acts of kindness towards those less fortunate. As we gaze upon this historic artwork today, it serves as both an educational tool and a call to action. It prompts us to reflect on how far society has come in terms of caring for disadvantaged children while also reminding us that there is still much work to be done to eradicate poverty completely.
