EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures the essence of architectural beauty and historic significance. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, it showcases a house that has garnered valuable publicity due to its remarkable features and historical interest. The image depicts a magnificent elevation of the Royal Hotel in Grantham, adorned with ancient gateways and arches. This grand establishment dates back to 1483 when it served as King Richard III's court inn. The photograph even includes a signed death warrant for the Duke of Buckingham, adding an intriguing layer of history to this already captivating scene. Intricately carved angels and seraphs adorn the premises, reminding viewers of both the ethereal beauty and harsh realities associated with this place. It is said that condemned individuals were sentenced to death within these walls, making it a haunting reminder of capital punishment during that era. This powerful image was originally featured as an illustration in "Licensed Houses and their Management" edited by W Bently Capper in 1946. Its inclusion undoubtedly added depth to discussions about historic properties like this one. Now part of a private collection, this print from Bridgeman Images offers us a glimpse into the past while highlighting how striking architectural features can attract valuable publicity for such houses today.
