EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Waifs and Strays" by Joseph Clark takes us back to a time of great social disparity. The engraving, originally published in The Graphic on January 13,1883, depicts a poignant scene that speaks volumes about the hardships faced by impoverished children during this era. In this powerful image, we see a group of waifs and strays huddled together, their faces etched with exhaustion and hunger. Their tattered clothing serves as a stark reminder of their destitution. Yet amidst the despair, there is also an air of resilience and hope in their eyes. The artist's attention to detail allows us to truly empathize with these young souls who have been left to fend for themselves. It serves as a call to action for society at large – reminding us of our duty to extend compassion and support towards those less fortunate. This engraving captures the essence of charity and the urgent need for assistance in times of poverty. It reminds us that every child deserves love, care, and nourishment regardless of their circumstances or background. Through this thought-provoking artwork from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are encouraged not only to reflect on the struggles faced by these waifs but also inspired to take action against poverty in all its forms – ensuring that no child is ever left behind or forgotten again.
