EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Police Orphanage Ball at the City Terminus Hotel" takes us back to 19th century London, offering a glimpse into an extravagant social event. The scene is filled with elegance and grandeur as men and women gather in their finest attire. The City Terminus Hotel, located on Cannon Street, serves as the backdrop for this glamorous affair. Its magnificent architecture adds to the overall splendor of the occasion. Published in the Illustrated London News on May 3rd, 1873, this print captures a moment of celebration and unity within the police community. As we observe the image closely, we can see that both men and women are present at this ball. Their fashionable clothing reflects the trends of Victorian society during that era. The attendees exude joy and excitement as they engage in conversation or gracefully dance across the ballroom floor. What makes this event particularly special is its purpose - it was organized by and for the Police Orphanage. This charitable institution provided support to children who had lost their parents serving in law enforcement duties. Through this enchanting engraving, we are transported back in time to witness a momentous gathering that not only showcased opulence but also highlighted compassion towards those less fortunate within society's ranks.
