"The Ball Room, Hampton Court" is an illustrated plate from the three-volume work "The History of the Royal Residences" by William Henry Pyne (1769–1843), published in 1819. The work is often mistakenly attributed to Richard Cattermole, who was not the author but may have been involved in the publication in some capacity. Pyne's ambitious project provides a detailed historical and descriptive account of the principal royal palaces in England, namely Windsor Castle, St. James's Palace, Carlton House, Kensington Palace, Hampton Court, Buckingham House, and Frogmore.

The Ball Room at Hampton Court Palace, specifically, is one of the numerous illustrations included in the volumes, which were engraved by the most eminent artists of the time from drawings by Charles Wild and others. These illustrations are significant for their artistic merit and for providing a visual record of the royal residences' interiors and exteriors during the early 19th century.

Hampton Court Palace itself is a former royal residence located in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, and its history dates back to the early 16th century when it was built for Cardinal Thomas Wolsey. However, it became best known as a favorite residence of King Henry VIII. The Ball Room, as depicted in Pyne's work, would have been a space designed for grand events and courtly entertainment, reflecting the opulence and grandeur of the period.

Pyne's "The History of the Royal Residences" is considered an important source for historians and art historians alike, as it provides a comprehensive view of the royal palaces and their artistic and cultural significance during the reign of George III and the Regency era. The inclusion of "The Ball Room, Hampton Court" within this work offers a glimpse into the architectural and decorative styles of the time, as well as the social customs and royal ceremonies associated with the British monarchy.
