The image, created by Charles Robinson in 1867, showcases the dedication and passion of these musicians as they entertain their audience. Set against the backdrop of London's Bethnal Green Workhouse, this scene transports us to a time when music was used as a means of escape from harsh realities. The performers, dressed in vibrant costumes, exude energy and enthusiasm as they bring joy to those around them. The engraving not only highlights the talent of these amateur musicians but also sheds light on the importance of communal gatherings during challenging times.
