 December 2007 Photos.com Challenge  

While 19th-century literary and artistic depictions of childhood tended to romanticize it, the reality for many was far from the world of nursery rhymes and fairy tales. This month we provided six photos from the Historical category of the Photos.com stock photo site. Four of them were 19th century illustrations of children's rhymes and stories, while two engravings by Gustave Doré depicted the darker realms of London's poor. The challenge was to use at least part of two of any of the images below in a new composition.
