The image, titled "Commons Terrace, 1893," depicts a scene of tranquility and camaraderie as Members of Parliament (MPs) and their esteemed guests take a break from the rigors of political debate to enjoy an afternoon tea on the terrace. The terrace, with its ornate iron balustrades and stunning views of the River Thames, serves as a picturesque backdrop for this historical gathering. The MPs, dressed in their formal attire, engage in animated conversations, while their guests, mostly women, delicately sip their tea from fine china cups. The terrace is adorned with an array of tables, each laden with an assortment of teacups, saucers, plates of sandwiches, and other delectable treats. The photograph offers a glimpse into the social and political landscape of the late 19th century, a time when the Houses of Parliament were at the heart of British political life.
