EDITORS COMMENTS
The White Drawing-Room at Windsor Castle, as depicted in this 1850 engraving from Illustrated London News, showcases the elegant and ornate interior of this noble space, frequently used as a breakfast room by Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. The room's spacious bay window, reaching from the floor to the ceiling, is adorned with crimson satin damask curtains and framed by large plates of looking-glass. The walls, painted a pristine white, are richly gilded, with ornate details on the walls and ceiling. Two ebony doors, embellished with ormolu, are flanked by the bay window, and large mirrors are also featured on the doors and above the fireplace. A tall, classic black marble pedestal supports an elegant vase of malachite, mounted in ormolu, while a table of beautiful workmanship sits in front. The chandelier, a massive and somewhat heavy-looking one, holds forty lights. This interior, a testament to the opulence and grandeur of the British monarchy during the 19th century, is a stunning example of interior decoration and design.
