EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print captures a serene scene at Babies Castle children's home in Hawkhurst, Kent during the 19th century. The image showcases a group of children peacefully taking a midday nap, highlighting the tranquility and comfort provided by this charitable institution. The composition is filled with delicate details that evoke a sense of innocence and childhood wonder. A young girl lies on her bed surrounded by vibrant flowers, showcasing the beauty of nature within the castle walls. Meanwhile, a boy rests nearby, his peaceful slumber accentuated by the presence of poppies symbolizing sleep and relaxation. Babies Castle was founded by Dr Barnardo as part of his philanthropic efforts to provide care for vulnerable children in need. This illustration originally appeared in Bubbles magazine edited by Dr Barnardo himself, further emphasizing its significance as an emblematic representation of his work. The lithograph beautifully captures the essence of childhood bliss and safety within this enchanting castle setting. It serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of providing love, shelter, and support to those who need it most. This remarkable artwork not only showcases Henry Herbert Bulman's artistic talent but also immortalizes an important chapter in British history when charity played a vital role in improving the lives of disadvantaged children.
