This image graces the front cover of the Summer Number of The Illustrated London, published on the 3rd of June, 1911. The Savoy Hotel, an iconic landmark of London's West End, plays host to a grand ball, as evidenced by the elegant crowd adorned in their finest attire, gathered on the hotel's spacious terrace. The Savoy, renowned for its luxurious accommodations and impeccable service, was a popular destination for high society events during this era. The image, a testament to the opulence and grandeur of the early 20th century, is filled with intriguing details. The gentlemen, dressed in tuxedos and top hats, engage in animated conversations, while the ladies, in their flowing gowns and extravagant headpieces, display an air of sophistication and elegance. The terrace, adorned with lush greenery and colorful flowers, provides a stunning backdrop for the festivities. The Illustrated London, a leading weekly publication of the time, captured the essence of London's social scene with its detailed and evocative imagery. This cover, with its vibrant colors and lively composition, offers a glimpse into the glamour and excitement of a bygone era. Whether you're a history buff, a socialite, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of the past, this image is sure to transport you to a time when life moved a little slower, and luxury was the order of the day.
