When first launched in 1842, the Illustrated London News marked a revolution in journalism and news reporting. It provided a visual tour of the triumphs, tragedies, daily life and monumental events of the world and the modern British empire. The Illustrated London News Historical Archive, 1842–2003 is an asset to students and researchers of subjects including social history, fashion, theatre, media, literature, advertising, graphic design and politics, as well as the general public, particularly those interested in genealogy.
