EDITORS COMMENTS
In this 18th-century engraving titled "Two men at the bedside of an old man in a garret" we are transported to a humble and somber scene. The image depicts two men standing vigil at the bedside of an elderly gentleman, who lies frail and weak in a dilapidated garret. This powerful artwork by Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki captures the essence of compassion and human suffering. The caption reveals that one of the visitors is Mr. Jones, who has come to visit Martin, a weaver left destitute and starving by his heartless son. The emotional impact is palpable as we witness their encounter in this decrepit space. The viewer cannot help but feel moved by the injustice inflicted upon Martin. This engraving was created as part of Mary Wollstonecraft's translation of Christian Gotthilf Salzmann's Elements of Morality in London, 1791. It serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst societal progress during the Enlightenment era, there were still individuals living in abject poverty and facing neglect from their own kin. The artist William Blake skillfully translated Chodowiecki's illustration into copperplate engraving, further emphasizing the raw emotions conveyed within this piece. Through its depiction of illness, disease, and social inequality, this artwork prompts us to reflect on our responsibility towards those less fortunate than ourselves—a timeless message that continues to resonate today.
