EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1890, showcases the Royal Alexandra Hospital for Children situated in the picturesque coastal town of Brighton, Sussex. Nestled along the South Coast of England, the hospital stands as a testament to the compassionate care provided to children during the Victorian era. The image reveals a grand, red-brick building with intricate architectural details, reflecting the elegance and sophistication of the time. The hospital's name, "Royal Alexandra," is proudly displayed at the entrance, signifying its esteemed status. The tranquil garden surrounding the hospital adds to the serene atmosphere, providing a healing environment for young patients. Brighton, a popular seaside resort, was known for its therapeutic benefits, with its salty sea air and calming waters believed to improve health. The decision to establish a children's hospital in this idyllic location was a progressive move, as the importance of specialized care for children was beginning to be recognized during the late 19th century. The Royal Alexandra Hospital for Children in Brighton was a pioneering institution dedicated to the well-being of young patients, offering them a chance to recover in a nurturing and supportive environment. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the history and commitment to children's health care in Brighton and Sussex during the Victorian era.
