EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in time outside the Royal Caledonian Orphan Asylum at Bushey, a place designed by the talented architect William Emerson. The children seen here are part of a society dedicated to providing housing, welfare, and care for young ones who have lost their parents. The date of this image remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to the scene.
The Royal Caledonian Asylum was more than just a building - it was a home for these children, offering them accommodation and support during difficult times. Today, the site where this orphanage once stood is occupied by the prestigious Purcell School for Young Musicians, continuing its legacy of nurturing talent and providing opportunities for young people.
As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we are reminded of the importance of institutions like the Royal Caledonian Asylum in providing sanctuary and hope for those in need. The innocence and resilience of these children shine through in their faces as they stand together outside their temporary home.
Through Peter Higginbotham's collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, we are granted a glimpse into a world where compassion and care were paramount - a world where every child had a chance to thrive despite adversity.
