EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a poignant moment in history as young boys eagerly await admission into the Bridge House Refuge for Boys in Wandsworth, London. The image, originally published in The Illustrated News of the World in 1858, offers a glimpse into the lives of children seeking shelter and support during a time when social welfare was scarce.
The hopeful expressions on the faces of these applicants speak volumes about their desire for safety and stability. Each boy represents a story of resilience and determination, facing challenges beyond their years with courage and strength. It is a reminder of the hardships faced by many children in 19th century England and the importance of institutions like Bridge House Refuge in providing them with care and protection.
