This engraving, titled "Fete at Grosvenor-House, on Monday, in Aid of the Funds of The Hospital for Women" takes us back to a vibrant scene in 19th century London. The image showcases an extravagant fete held at Grosvenor House, a grand mansion in the heart of the city. The purpose behind this splendid gathering was to raise funds for The Hospital for Women located in Soho Square.

The atmosphere is filled with joy and excitement as attendees engage in various festivities organized throughout the event. Laughter and merriment can be heard amidst the backdrop of elegant decorations adorning every corner.
