This black-and-white photograph captures an urban scene in a subway in Norwich. On the left, a homeless person lies on the ground, partially obscured by shadow, embodying hardship and neglect. To the right, illuminated by light at the tunnel’s end, a man walks hand-in-hand with a small child, symbolising protection and hope. Posters and directional signs adorn the tiled wall ahead, pointing towards destinations such as “St Stephens Gate Medical Practice” and “Samaritans,” suggesting both everyday life and avenues of help. The stark contrast between darkness and light enhances the emotional depth, evoking themes of struggle, compassion, and the passage of humanity.
