EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, dated 30 December 1882, provides a fascinating glimpse into the interior of Court IX, also known as the Queens Bench, at the Royal Courts of Justice in London during the late 19th century. The Queens Bench Division is the oldest and most senior civil court in England and Wales, with its origins dating back to the 12th century. The image reveals a grand and ornate courtroom, filled with a sense of solemnity and importance. The presiding judge, dressed in full robes and wig, sits atop a raised platform, known as the wigged bench, surrounded by his fellow judges. The counsel tables, where barristers argue their cases, are located to the right and left of the bench. The jury box, where the 12 jurors sit during trials, is situated at the far end of the courtroom. The intricate detail of the engraving highlights the impressive architecture of the Royal Courts of Justice, which was designed by architects Philip Charles Hardwick and William George Somers Clarke and opened in 1882. The use of natural light, as seen through the large windows, adds to the overall sense of grandeur and openness. This engraving offers a unique insight into the workings of the English legal system during the Victorian era, providing a glimpse into the past and the rich history of the Royal Courts of Justice in London.
