EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful photograph, captured in 1872 by the talented artist Dore, we witness a scene of immense compassion and hope. The image portrays a man engrossed in reading from the scriptures to a roomful of sleepers at a night refuge for the homeless. As the soft light gently illuminates their faces, it becomes evident that these individuals have found solace within the pages of this sacred book. The composition is strikingly poignant, with each figure occupying their own space amidst simple furniture and bare walls. The contrast between light and shadow adds depth to the scene, emphasizing both physical and emotional struggles faced by those seeking refuge. This engraving serves as a testament to humanity's capacity for empathy and kindness even in times of adversity. It reminds us that literature has long been an instrument of comfort and enlightenment for those experiencing hardship. Through its depiction of charity relief institutions during the late 19th century, this photograph sheds light on societal efforts to address homelessness during that era. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Hulton Archive's collection, we are reminded not only of our shared responsibility towards one another but also how art can capture profound moments that transcend time. This image stands as a timeless reminder that even in darkness, there is always room for compassion and understanding.
