EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Henry W. Taunt in the year 1900, presents a serene and picturesque scene of the River Thames in Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire. The image reflects the beauty and tranquility of the area during the regatta season, with the iconic Temple on Temple Island standing proudly in the distance. The Temple, a historic structure built in 1771, was originally designed by James Wyatt as a fishing lodge for Fawley Court, a nearby estate. Its elegant design, with its classical columns and domed roof, adds an air of grandeur to the otherwise natural setting. The reflection of the temple in the calm waters of the River Thames is a sight to behold, creating a mirror image that enhances the visual appeal of the scene. The gentle ripples on the water, caused by the breeze or the passing of small boats, add a sense of movement and life to the otherwise still image. The regatta course, which can be seen in the foreground of the photograph, adds a sense of history and tradition to the scene. The annual Henley Royal Regatta, which takes place on this stretch of the River Thames, is one of the oldest and most prestigious rowing events in the world, attracting participants and spectators from all corners of the globe. This photograph by Henry Taunt is a testament to the enduring beauty and charm of Henley-on-Thames and the River Thames, and serves as a reminder of the rich history and traditions that are deeply rooted in this picturesque corner of England.
