EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic Apsley House, a grand mansion located in the heart of London. The engraving, dated back to 1850, beautifully captures the architectural brilliance of this historic landmark. Originally designed by Robert Adam between 1771 and 1778, Apsley House underwent significant enlargement and remodeling by Benjamin Dean Wyatt under the ownership of the Duke of Wellington. As one gazes at this enchanting image, they are transported back in time to an era when opulence and elegance reigned supreme. The intricate details depicted in this line-colored engraving highlight the exquisite craftsmanship that went into constructing such a magnificent residence. Adjacent to Apsley House stands the Hyde Park Screen, another architectural marvel built between 1822 and 1825 by Decimus Burton. This screen adds an extra touch of grandeur to an already impressive setting. The Mayson Beeton Collection has preserved this remarkable piece of history for generations to come. It serves as a testament not only to the artistic talent behind its creation but also as a window into London's rich past.
