EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a view of the Organ Drawing Room at Lansdowne House in London. The image is taken from "The Country Houses of Robert Adam" by Eileen Harris, published in 2007. Lansdowne House was commissioned by the 3rd Earl of Bute and designed by renowned architect Robert Adam in 1762. However, it was sold unfinished to the Earl of Shelburne, later known as the 1st Marquess of Lansdowne, who completed it according to Adam's original plans in 1768. The room depicted here showcases exquisite neo-classical architecture with its stuccoed walls adorned with plasterwork decorations. Corinthian pilasters grace the space while a grand chimneypiece adds an air of elegance. The painted portraits on display further enhance the regal atmosphere. Intriguingly, this particular room was eventually sold to the Philadelphia Museum of Art in 1930, adding an international flair to its history. The photographer behind this remarkable image remains anonymous but has skillfully captured every detail and nuance within this magnificent interior space. Overall, this photograph offers a glimpse into the opulent world of Georgian-era manor houses and stately homes. Its timeless beauty serves as a testament to both Robert Adam's architectural genius and Bridgeman Images' commitment to preserving fine art for generations to come.
