EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Feeding the Poor at Aurangabad, Deccan" transports us to India in the late 19th century. The image depicts a scene of compassion and humanity as locals gather to provide nourishment for those less fortunate. Created by Henry Marriott Paget, this print captures a moment of selflessness that resonates with viewers even today. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, showcasing the poverty-stricken individuals who rely on this act of charity for sustenance. Their weathered faces tell stories of hardship and struggle, while their grateful expressions reveal a glimmer of hope amidst despair. Aurangabad, located in the Deccan region of India, serves as the backdrop for this poignant scene. This historical city has witnessed countless tales unfold over centuries but remains plagued by poverty. Through this artwork, we are reminded not only of the challenges faced by these impoverished communities but also of our collective responsibility to alleviate their suffering. Paget's lithograph was originally published in The Graphic on July 31st, 1897 – an era when illustrated papers played a crucial role in informing and educating society about global issues. Today, it continues to serve as a powerful reminder that acts of kindness can transcend time and place. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to reflect upon Indian culture and Asian society during an important period in history when social inequality was prevalent. It invites us to contemplate how far we have come since
