Jerrold Blanchard: A Glimpse into the Victorian Era Step back in time to the bustling streets of Westminster, Limehouse Dock, and beyond as we explore the captivating works of Jerrold Blanchard. Inspired by the intricate illustrations of Gustave Doré, Blanchard takes us on a journey through 1872 London. In "The Devils Acre - Westminster, " we witness the dark underbelly of society, where poverty and despair are ever-present. Through his artistry, Blanchard sheds light on the harsh realities faced by those living in this impoverished district. "The New Zealander" transports us to an era filled with curiosity and exploration. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork, we can almost hear the whispers of adventure echoing through its brushstrokes. Blanchard's attention to detail is evident in "Limehouse Dock. " The hustle and bustle of sailors unloading cargo create a vivid scene that transports us straight into London's maritime world. "The Angel and the Orphan" tugs at our heartstrings as it depicts a tender moment between two unlikely companions. This thought-provoking piece reminds us that compassion knows no boundaries. Through "Infant Hospital Patients, " Blanchard shines a spotlight on vulnerable children seeking solace within hospital walls. His portrayal evokes both empathy for their plight and admiration for those who care for them selflessly. In "Found in the Street, " Blanchard captures a poignant moment frozen in time – an abandoned child left to fend for themselves amidst indifference. This powerful image serves as a stark reminder of societal neglect during this era. With "Refuge - Applying for Admittance, " Blanchard delves deeper into social issues by portraying individuals desperately seeking shelter from life's storms. Their expressions tell tales of hardship while also igniting hope for better days ahead. "Asleep Under the Stars" invites us to escape from reality momentarily as we witness the peaceful slumber of a weary soul.
