This engraving, titled "Sunday Afternoon in St Giles, Tea at the Working Mens Christian Institute" takes us back to a bygone era in London. Created by William Small in 1872, this print offers a glimpse into the vibrant social scene that unfolded on Sundays within the heart of the city. In this bustling image, we witness a gathering of individuals from all walks of life coming together for tea at the Working Mens Christian Institute. Located in St Giles, an area known for its rich history and diverse community, this institution served as a hub for public meetings and religious activities. The atmosphere is filled with warmth and camaraderie as men engage in lively conversations while savoring their cups of tea. The room exudes an air of tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle outside; it becomes apparent that these Sunday afternoons were cherished moments for relaxation and reflection.
