As we gaze at this mesmerizing artwork, we can almost hear the bustling sounds of the city. The lamp illuminates the dark night, casting eerie shadows on Little Jo's face. Behind him looms St Paul's Cathedral, serving as a reminder of hope amidst despair. The artist skillfully captures both the innocence and resilience within this young urchin.
