EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Fire (engraving)" by the English School in the 19th century takes us back to a dramatic moment captured in time. The image, part of a private collection, was originally published as an illustration for The Illustrated London News on September 25,1869. In this scene, we are transported to a bustling street filled with emergency services responding to a blazing fire. The intensity and chaos of the situation are palpable as firefighters bravely battle the flames while drawing water from nearby sources. Their horse-drawn carriages stand ready, symbolizing both their reliance on animal-powered transport and their swift response to emergencies. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every stroke brings life and movement into this engraving. Horses gallop through billowing smoke, adding an element of wildness amidst the urban landscape. These majestic creatures become heroes themselves as they tirelessly aid in firefighting efforts. "Fire (engraving)" not only captures the danger and urgency associated with such calamities but also serves as a reminder of humanity's resilience when faced with adversity. This historic artwork allows us to reflect on how far our modern-day emergency services have come while appreciating the bravery and dedication exhibited by those who came before us.
