Notes / History This Floral Tableau by child dancers,was one of many tableaux depicting scenes from local history, part of the Historical Pageant staged at Wimbledon Park House in 1925. This was a three day event that included stalls and refreshments in addition to the historical plays. Money raised from the Fair was used to build a hall for Wimbledon Park.

The dance was performed in the John Evelyn Gardens, named after the diarist, who visited the house in the 1600s.
