EDITORS COMMENTS
A Sunny Afternoon at Hampton Court Palace: A Scene from the Past, circa 1917 This painting, dating back to circa 1917, transports us to the picturesque gardens of Hampton Court Palace. The tranquil scene is filled with the joyful sounds of families enjoying a sunny day out. Children run around the lush flower beds, their laughter echoing through the air, while adults leisurely stroll among the trees, taking in the vibrant colours and fragrances of the blooming flowers. Hampton Court Palace, a historic monument of architectural grandeur, is nestled in the background. Construction of this majestic building began in 1514, under the orders of Cardinal Thomas Wolsey, who was then the chief minister to King Henry VIII. The palace was later gifted to the monarch, making it a significant royal residence. The painting beautifully captures the essence of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the past. This evocative image is taken from the pages of an old magazine, specifically Volume 12, Issue 1 of "Alice Maud Fanner's March of the Women." The magazine, published by the company March of the Women Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, is a treasure trove of historical photographs and illustrations, providing valuable insights into various aspects of history. As we admire this painting, we are transported back in time, allowing us to savour the beauty of Hampton Court Palace and the simple pleasures of a sunny afternoon spent in the company of loved ones.
