The intricate detail of the decorative plasterwork adorning the ground-floor back room of these Georgian town houses is a testament to the timeless elegance and craftsmanship of Robert Adam's design. In this particular shot, we are treated to a mesmerizing view that showcases not only the delicate ornamentation but also its reflection in a wall-mounted mirror.

Whether you're an admirer of Georgian architecture or simply appreciate fine craftsmanship, this print offers a glimpse into an era where attention to detail was paramount.
