EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur of "The saloon, Coleshill House" in Berkshire, England. The image is taken from Giles Worsley's renowned book "England's Lost Houses" published in 2002. The saloon, a magnificent room within Coleshill House, showcases the exquisite craftsmanship and opulence of 17th-century architecture. Built between 1649 and 1672 by Sir Roger Pratt for his cousin Sir George Pratt, this architectural masterpiece was influenced by the legendary Inigo Jones and his pupil John Webb. Sadly, Coleshill House met its tragic fate when it was ravaged by fire in 1952. The photograph reveals intricate stucco work adorning the walls with elegant swags that add to the neo-classical charm of the space. The plasterwork ceiling is a true testament to skilled artisans who created elaborate designs that still captivate viewers centuries later. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to an era of grandeur and sophistication. It offers us a glimpse into the interior decor of a stately home that once stood proudly on these grounds. Through fine art photography captured by an English photographer from Bridgeman Images' collection, we can appreciate both the historical significance and aesthetic beauty preserved within this print.
