Bartholomew's Hospital, London: A Glimpse into the Past through the Lens of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive This vintage lantern slide image transports us back in time to the late Victorian or early Edwardian era, offering a rare glimpse into the hallowed halls of Bartholomew's Hospital in London. Established in 1123, Bartholomew's is one of the oldest and most esteemed medical institutions in the United Kingdom. In this evocative photograph, we see the imposing facade of the hospital, with its grand arches and intricate stonework, standing proud against the backdrop of a partly clouded sky. The hospital's name, "Bartholomew's," is prominently displayed above the entrance, a testament to the enduring legacy of this esteemed institution. The image, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, provides a fascinating insight into the hospital's history. The meticulously composed shot showcases the hospital's architectural beauty, while also hinting at the bustling activity within its walls. The lantern slide, an early form of photographic projection, would have been used in lectures and presentations during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This photograph, with its intriguing glimpse into the past, would have captivated audiences and fueled their curiosity about the world around them. Today, this image serves as a poignant reminder of the rich history of Bartholomew's Hospital and the pivotal role it has played in the medical community for nearly a millennium. The intricate details of the stonework, the sense of history that permeates the image, and the knowledge that this photograph has survived the test of time make it a truly invaluable addition to any collection.
