EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Besieged" by Frederick Morgan takes us back to a scene from the past, transporting us to a time of hardship and resilience. The engraving, originally published in The Illustrated London News on May 10th, 1884, captures the essence of a besieged community. In this image, we see women and children surrounded by goats and livestock amidst an atmosphere of scarcity. With their eyes fixed on a basket filled with apples, these individuals are reminded of the importance of sustenance during challenging times. The presence of fruit symbolizes hope and nourishment as they strive to survive within their besieged environment. The artist's attention to detail is evident in his depiction of both botanical elements and scientific methods used for food supply. This engraving not only showcases Morgan's artistic prowess but also serves as a reminder that even in dire circumstances, humanity finds ways to adapt and persevere. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' Private Collection, we are transported into the world captured within its frame - one where children playfully interact with nature while adults work tirelessly to secure provisions for their loved ones. It is through images like these that we gain insight into history's triumphs over adversity and find inspiration for our own journeys today.
