EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant print captures the harsh reality of life in 1950s Hull. In a small, cramped bedroom at No. 198 Colman Street, a resilient mother finds solace amidst her children. The date is etched on our minds - 9th July 1953 - reminding us of the struggles faced by families during this era. The image speaks volumes about the dire housing conditions that plagued many communities back then. With limited space and resources, this humble abode serves as both refuge and prison for its inhabitants. The room is filled with worn-out beds where siblings huddle together, their faces reflecting innocence despite their challenging circumstances. It's impossible not to be moved by the mother's strength as she navigates through poverty with grace and determination. Her love for her children shines through in every line on her face, embodying resilience in the face of adversity. This photograph transports us back to an era when slums were all too common, highlighting societal issues that demanded attention even then. It reminds us to appreciate how far we have come while acknowledging that there is still work to be done in ensuring everyone has access to safe and adequate housing. Charlie Ley's skillful composition allows us a glimpse into history; it urges us to reflect upon the past while inspiring action towards creating a better future for all individuals regardless of their socioeconomic background or circumstances.
