1. Title: A Bird's Eye View of Fulham and Hammersmith Union Workhouse, London (1849) This photograph print offers a unique perspective of the Fulham and Hammersmith Union Workhouse, an architectural masterpiece designed by Alfred Gilbert and opened in 1849 on Fulham Palace Road, London. The workhouse, a vital institution during the Victorian era, was established to provide shelter, food, and care for the destitute, the elderly, and the infirm. Alfred Gilbert, a renowned English sculptor, architect, and designer, was responsible for creating this impressive structure. The workhouse was designed with a palatial appearance, aiming to instill a sense of dignity and respect for its inhabitants, a departure from the harsh and demeaning conditions that characterized earlier workhouses. The photograph presents a bird's eye view of the workhouse, revealing its grand layout and intricate details. The building's symmetrical design is evident, with its central block and two wings extending outwards, forming a U-shape. The architectural style is a blend of Gothic and Classical influences, with pointed arches, tall chimneys, and ornate decorative elements. The Fulham and Hammersmith Union Workhouse was a significant addition to the London landscape, reflecting the social and architectural trends of the time. Its opening in 1849 marked a shift towards more humane and dignified treatment of the poor, providing a sense of hope and relief for those in need. This photograph print offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of social welfare and architectural innovation in Victorian London.
