EDITORS COMMENTS

This print captures a haunting scene from the dark depths of history. In Holywell Lane, Shoreditch, London, during the devastating plague outbreak in 1665, we witness the solemn act of burying plague victims at Holywell Mount. The image is an engraving skillfully created by Grignion after Wale for Montague's History of England. The sheer magnitude of this tragedy is palpable as rows upon rows of bodies are laid to rest in makeshift graves. The illustration transports us back to a time when fear and despair gripped the city, and death seemed omnipresent. It serves as a somber reminder of the fragility of life and the indomitable spirit that emerged amidst such adversity. The attention to detail in this engraving is remarkable; every figure exudes grief and weariness while carrying out their grim task with unwavering determination. The artist's expertise brings forth a sense of realism that evokes empathy within us even centuries later. As we gaze upon this poignant image from Historic England's Mayson Beeton Collection, we cannot help but reflect on our shared human experience throughout history. It reminds us how communities have faced unimaginable challenges together and found strength in unity. Let this photograph serve as a testament to resilience and hope - a tribute to those who endured one of humanity's darkest chapters yet managed to rebuild their lives from its ashes.
