EDITORS COMMENTS
This sketch from 1901 captures the innocence and vulnerability of the little maids of the Foundling Hospital in Guilford Street. Founded by sea captain Thomas Coram in 1739, this institution was a beacon of hope for unwanted children in need of care and support.
The image depicts a group of young girls, each with their own unique story and background, brought together under the compassionate guidance of Captain Coram. Their faces reflect a mixture of curiosity, resilience, and perhaps a hint of sadness at their uncertain circumstances.
As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, we are reminded of the power of philanthropy and compassion to make a difference in the lives of those less fortunate. The dedication and vision of individuals like Captain Coram paved the way for these little maids to have a chance at a better future.
Through this simple yet poignant sketch, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the impact that one person's kindness can have on an entire community. These children may have been orphaned or abandoned, but they were not forgotten – thanks to institutions like the Foundling Hospital that provided them with shelter, education, and most importantly, love.
Let us honor these little maids and all those who work tirelessly to ensure that every child has a place where they belong.
