EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, taken from the front cover of The Graphic, an illustrated weekly newspaper, dated Saturday, July 4, 1891, offers a glimpse into the grandeur and elegance of a Victorian-era reception held by Lady Stanhope in the Banqueting Hall of Whitehall Palace. The photograph, believed to be an engraving, showcases an impressive gathering of well-dressed men and women, adorned in the fashionable clothing of the time. The women don elegant ball gowns and intricately designed hats, while the men wear formal attire, complete with top hats and tails. The interior of the Banqueting Hall is equally impressive, with its ornate decorations, grand fireplace, and high ceilings adorned with elaborate frescoes. The reception, held in the heart of London's Whitehall City, was likely a significant social event for Victorian high society. The Graphic, known for its illustrations and reporting on current events, captured this moment in time, offering us a window into the past and a reminder of the grandeur and opulence of Victorian-era society.
