EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant print captures a roadside gipsy family inside their makeshift home, a bender constructed in Newdigate, Surrey during the 1960s. The image tells a story of hardship and resilience as the family finds themselves in dire circumstances. Their horse has tragically passed away, while their caravan has collapsed due to rot, leaving them without shelter. In this vulnerable state, they are left waiting for assistance from the council to provide them with a new home. The photograph portrays an intimate scene within the bender, revealing the strength of familial bonds amidst adversity. A woman and her children can be seen huddled together alongside their loyal dog. The expressions on their faces reflect both weariness and determination as they navigate through homelessness. Captured by Tony Boxall, this monochrome portrait evokes a sense of empathy towards these marginalized individuals who have fallen through society's safety nets. It serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by gypsy communities during that era in Britain. Through this snapshot frozen in time, we are invited to contemplate themes such as poverty, displacement, and social inequality that persist even today. This photograph stands not only as documentation but also as an invitation to reflect upon our collective responsibility towards those who find themselves without homes or support systems – reminding us that compassion knows no boundaries of time or place.
