EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken in 1872, a little girl stands outside a pet shop near St Giles In The Fields, London's vibrant West End. Her eyes are fixed on the cages filled with various animals, her wistful gaze revealing a longing for companionship and playfulness. Dressed in simple attire, she clutches onto a box tied to a piece of string, perhaps carrying her treasured possessions or even hoping to acquire one of the creatures behind the glass panes. The bustling street around her showcases people going about their daily activities - some shopping, others engaged in conversation or simply passing by. The image captures not only the innocence and curiosity of childhood but also highlights the social dynamics of Victorian-era London. As shoeshine men gather nearby forming an impromptu group, it is evident that life was tough for many during this time. This medium shot beautifully encapsulates both human and animal subjects within its frame – reminding us of our innate desire for connection and companionship. It serves as a poignant reminder that amidst the hustle and bustle of city life, we all seek solace in different forms; be it through pets or cherished objects that bring us joy. Preserved by Hulton Archive/Getty Images, this historical snapshot offers us an intimate glimpse into London's past while evoking emotions that transcend time itself.
