EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the "Grand Fete at Mount Edgecumbe - the Bazaar and Italian Gardens" held in 1844. Organized to raise funds for both the Devon and Cornwall Female Orphan Asylum, as well as the South Devon and East Cornwall Hospital, this charity event was a grand affair that took place at Mount Edgcumbe House in Cornwall, England. The image showcases a picturesque scene outside the Orangery, where visitors gather amidst beautifully landscaped gardens. The ornate fountain stands tall, its water cascading gracefully into its basin. Sculptures adorn various corners of this enchanting space, adding an artistic touch to this stately home's surroundings. People from all walks of life can be seen enjoying themselves at this garden party. Their elegant Victorian attire adds a sense of sophistication to the atmosphere while reflecting the fashion trends of that era. The Illustrated London News captured this momentous occasion with great detail and precision. As we gaze upon this remarkable engraving from nearly two centuries ago, we are transported back in time to witness not only a charitable event but also a glimpse into British history. This print serves as a testament to community spirit and philanthropy during an era when such events played an essential role in supporting worthy causes.
