EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the grandeur of Apsley House, a historic landmark nestled in the heart of London. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image, our eyes are immediately drawn to the ornate candelabrum that takes center stage within the opulent interior. The intricate details and exquisite craftsmanship of this piece leave us in awe, serving as a testament to the timeless elegance that once graced these hallowed halls. Photographed by Eric de Mare during the 1960s, this snapshot not only captures the beauty of Apsley House but also offers an intriguing twist through its clever use of reflection. Through a strategically placed mirror, we are granted a unique perspective on this magnificent candelabrum. The mirror's presence adds depth and dimension to the composition while allowing us to appreciate every delicate curve and shimmering crystal with even greater clarity. It is impossible to discuss Apsley House without mentioning its association with one of Britain's most iconic figures - Wellington. This stately residence was once home to Arthur Wellesley, Duke of Wellington, whose legacy as a military hero still echoes throughout history. Though his name may not be explicitly mentioned here, it lingers silently in every corner of Apsley House. Eric de Mare's skillful photography has immortalized both an architectural gem and an exquisite work of art within this single frame. With each glance at this remarkable print, we are transported into a world where luxury meets history—a world where light
