1893 Athenaeum Clubs Daily Elliot Groups Morning Societies Villiers
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1893, captures a moment of quiet reflection and camaraderie in the elegant Morning Room of the Athenaeum Club in London. The Athenaeum, a prestigious members-only social club, was renowned for its intellectual and artistic membership, providing a congenial environment for lively debates, stimulating conversations, and the pursuit of knowledge. In this image, we find two esteemed gentlemen, Mr. J.L. Elliot and the Right Hon. C.P. Villiers, MP, engrossed in the daily news. The morning paper spread out before them, its pages crisp and fresh, serves as a reminder of the importance of staying informed in the rapidly changing world of the late 19th century. Mr. Elliot, a prominent figure in London society, is dressed in a formal morning suit, his expression thoughtful as he scans the headlines. The Right Hon. Villiers, an accomplished politician, wears the insignia of his office, the Order of the Bath, proudly displayed on his chest. His gaze is fixed on the paper, his demeanor serious and intent. The Morning Room, with its ornate fireplace, richly patterned wallpaper, and plentiful natural light, offers a tranquil setting for these two gentlemen to begin their day. The atmosphere is one of refined comfort, a testament to the enduring allure of the Athenaeum Club and the traditions it represents.
