EDITORS COMMENTS
The New Law Courts at Birmingham, opened by TRH The Prince and Princess of Wales, 1891, is a stunning architectural masterpiece captured in this photograph from "The Graphic. An Illustrated Weekly Newspaper." The Great Hall of the New Law Courts is depicted in all its glory, showcasing the intricate design and grandeur of the Victorian-era building. Designed by Sir Aston Webb, the architectural marvel was officially opened by the Prince and Princess of Wales in 1891. The building, which is now known as the Victoria Law Courts, is a Grade I listed building and a significant landmark in Birmingham, West Midlands, England. The photograph captures the impressive interior of the Great Hall, with its high ceilings, ornate archways, and large windows allowing natural light to flood the room. The central feature of the hall is the Ingress Bell, designed by Edward Ingress Bell, which was rung to signal the opening of each court session. The New Law Courts were built to accommodate the increasing need for larger and more modern court facilities in Birmingham. The building's design reflects the Victorian era's emphasis on grandeur and the importance of the legal system in society. Today, the Victoria Law Courts continue to serve the people of Birmingham and the surrounding areas, providing a vital service in the administration of justice. This photograph is a testament to the enduring beauty and significance of this historic building.
