EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the enchantment and excitement of the Juvenile Fancy-Dress Ball, held on 5 January at the prestigious Mansion House. The illustration, created by Amedee Forestier and featured in The Illustrated London News on 13 January 1894, showcases a myriad of beautifully adorned children dressed in an array of exquisite costumes. The scene is a vibrant tapestry of colors and characters, with each child embodying their chosen role with youthful exuberance. From Little Prince Florian to Miss Renee Nusbaum, from Master Bertie Ellis to the Great Italian Girl - all are united in their love for this grand event. As we delve into this snapshot of society events from yesteryears, we witness Miss Marie Scharlack as one of the Incroyables, while Miss Gladys shines as the May Queen. Meanwhile, Master Lewis brings laughter as he dons the costume of a clown master. Amidst this kaleidoscope of youth and imagination stands Mother Titania herself alongside Sir Walter Raleigh and even a jester. Notably present are also writers - male and female authors who have skillfully crafted tales that transport us into worlds beyond our own. The Mansion House comes alive with merriment as these young souls revel in their roles - be it a lifeboat rescuer or even Morgiana herself. This print serves not only as a visual feast but also reminds us that childhood is indeed timeless; where dreams take flight amidst unity and joyous celebration.
