EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the House of Commons in 1623. The image, captured by an unknown creator and featured in "The Leisure Hour" magazine of 1881, offers a unique aerial view of the assembly hall during the 17th century. As we gaze upon this historic scene, we are transported to a different era where decision-making and politics unfolded within these walls. The men present inside the House of Commons are dressed in traditional attire, wearing cloaks and hats that were customary during that period. The grandeur of the Palace of Westminster is evident as it serves as a backdrop for this significant gathering. This architectural marvel has been witness to countless debates, discussions, and pivotal moments throughout British history. Through this monochrome portrait, we catch a glimpse into Victorian society's fascination with their past. The Religious Tract Society sought to educate its readers about historical events through images like these. While the identity of the individuals depicted remains unknown, their presence symbolizes an important part of British heritage. This photograph allows us to appreciate both the beauty and significance behind one of London's most iconic landmarks - a place where power was wielded and decisions that shaped nations were made.
