EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the interior of the Chapel at the Foundling Hospital in Bloomsbury, London, as it appeared in the mid-1840s. Established by Thomas Coram in the 1740s, the Foundling Hospital was a pioneering charitable institution dedicated to providing care for abandoned infants. The Chapel, located within the hospital complex, served as a place of worship and education for the children residing there. The photograph reveals a serene and orderly space, filled with pews arranged in neat rows, a balcony overlooking the nave, and a grand organ at the back of the room. The preacher, dressed in robes, stands at the pulpit, delivering a sermon to an attentive audience of children and adults. A wooden desk is situated at the front of the Chapel, likely used for administrative purposes or as a place for the children to study. The Foundling Hospital, with its emphasis on benevolence and care, was a testament to the compassionate spirit of the time. The Chapel, as a central part of the institution, played a crucial role in the moral and spiritual development of the children. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the daily life of the Foundling Hospital and the community it served, providing a poignant reminder of the importance of charity and compassion in times of need.
