Légende
'The Organ in the Court', 1872; showing an organ grinder in a courtyard. The organ grinder turns the wheels of his organ, while a monkey dressed in costume sits on the top of it. Children crowd around him, and dance in pairs. Groups of people stand and watch. Two people look out of their windows on the right. Taken from London: A Pilgrimage by Blanchard Jerrold and Gustave Doré. A Pilgrimage was a comprehensive portrait of London, but although the book was a commercial success many of the critics disliked it. Several were upset that Jerrold and Doré had concentrated on the poverty that existed in London.
