This photograph print depicts Queen Anne's Bath, a historic natural spring located in Endell Street, Holborn, London. Named in honor of Queen Anne (1665-1714), this bathing site was a favorite among the monarch and her court due to the believed healing properties of its mineral-rich waters. The image captures the essence of the past, with its intricately tiled walls and ornate windows reflecting the natural light. The year is 1845, and the scene is one of tranquility and relaxation.
