EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the idyllic scene of a Garden Party on Hampstead Heath in August 1885. The image, given by the Hampstead Heath Extension Committee, showcases the picturesque setting of the heath, which at the time was the subject of a significant proposal for expansion. With Parliament Hill looming in the background, the lush greenery and vibrant flora are in full bloom, providing a serene backdrop for the festivities. The Hampstead Heath Extension Committee was an important organization that aimed to purchase the adjacent land to extend the size of the heath, ensuring its preservation for the enjoyment of the public. This proposal was a significant historical event, as Hampstead Heath had long been a beloved destination for Londoners seeking respite from the city's hustle and bustle. The Garden Party depicted in this engraving is a testament to the community spirit and appreciation for the natural beauty of Hampstead Heath. The attendees are dressed in their finest summer attire, enjoying a delightful afternoon filled with food, drink, and conversation. The children in the foreground add a playful touch to the scene, further emphasizing the joy and camaraderie of the occasion. This engraving is an essential piece of historical documentation, providing a glimpse into the past and shedding light on the rich history of Hampstead Heath and its community. The image, produced by the Illustrated London News, captures the essence of a bygone era and serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving open spaces for the benefit of future generations.
