EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the grandeur of Findon, a magnificent country house designed by the renowned British architect, Mackay Hugh Baillie Scott. Dating back to circa 1906, this image offers a glimpse into the opulence and elegance of the Findon Dining Hall. The central focus of the room is the high ceiling, adorned with intricate plasterwork and a large skylight, which bathes the space in natural light. Commissioned by an affluent client, the dining hall is a testament to Baillie Scott's exceptional design skills. The room features a large, circular gate table placed by the fireplace, inviting guests to gather around and enjoy a sumptuous meal. The table, with its ornate carvings and rich wood finish, adds to the overall grandeur of the space. Baillie Scott, a leading figure in the Arts and Crafts movement, was known for his attention to detail and his commitment to creating functional and beautiful spaces. The Findon Dining Hall is a prime example of his design philosophy, which emphasized the importance of harmony between form and function. This photograph, part of the March of the Women Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a rare glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of elegance and refinement. The image invites us to imagine the sounds of clinking cutlery, the aroma of a delicious meal, and the lively conversation of guests gathered around the central table, all under the watchful eye of the magnificent fireplace.
