EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the late 19th century, offering a glimpse into the lives of children residing at Spurgeons Orphanage in Stockwell, Brixton, Lambeth, London. Taken in 1884 by the talented photographer H Bedford Lemere, this elevated exterior view showcases a heartwarming scene outside the orphanage's walls. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness a group of children gathered together on what appears to be a sunny day. Their youthful faces radiate innocence and curiosity as they engage with one another amidst their shared circumstances. The building itself stands tall and imposing behind them; its Victorian architecture exudes an air of stability and protection for these young souls seeking solace within its walls. Bedford Lemere's expert composition captures not only the physical surroundings but also manages to convey emotions that transcend time. We can almost hear their laughter and feel their camaraderie through his lens. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the resilience and strength exhibited by those who found themselves without families during this era. Preserved by Historic England, this image allows us to reflect upon our collective history while honoring the experiences of those who came before us. It is through such visual records that we gain insight into society's progress over time while appreciating how institutions like Spurgeons Orphanage played an essential role in providing care for vulnerable children during challenging times.
