Henley Regatta: A Victorian Tea Party on the Thames, 1897 (CC71_00067) This evocative photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, as a group of elegantly dressed men and women enjoy an idyllic afternoon tea party aboard a college barge during the Henley Royal Regatta in Oxfordshire, England, in 1897. The Henley Regatta, founded in 1839, had already gained significant popularity as a social occasion by the late Victorian era, particularly after being graced by the presence of royalty in 1851. The ladies, adorned in voluminous crinolines and high collars, engage in animated conversation while the gentlemen, in their formal attire, appear to be deep in thought or contemplation. The serene setting of the Thames, dotted with colorful barges and rowing boats, adds to the tranquil ambiance of the scene. The Henley Regatta, with its rich history and tradition, provided an excellent backdrop for such leisurely pursuits. The event, which continues to draw crowds to this day, showcases the beauty of the River Thames and the camaraderie and elegance of the participants. This photograph, taken by renowned Victorian photographer Henry Taunt, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of grace, refinement, and leisurely pursuits.
