EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the tranquil interior of the Chelsea Hospital Chapel, founded in 1681-2 by King Charles II and later rebuilt by Sir Christopher Wren in the 1680s. The hospital, located in the heart of London, was established as a comfortable retreat for old soldiers who had faithfully served their country in times of war. The image showcases a group of pensioners, some of whom are deep in thought during a moment of worship, while others engage in quiet conversation with one another. The chapel's ornate architecture, with its high ceilings, intricate details, and stained glass windows, creates an atmosphere of peace and reverence, providing a fitting space for these veterans to find solace and reflection. The image, taken in the 1890s, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the importance of caring for those who have dedicated their lives to protecting their nation. The Chelsea Hospital continues to serve its original purpose, providing a sanctuary for veterans and honoring their sacrifices.
