EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur of the drawing room in Nuthall Temple, Nottinghamshire. Taken from Giles Worsley's renowned book "England's Lost Houses" this image showcases the exquisite interior decor of a bygone era. Nuthall Temple, built between 1754 and 1757, was a masterpiece created by Sir Charles Sedley and architect Thomas Wright. Inspired by Vincenza Scamozzi's Rocca Pisani and Palladio's Villa Rotunda, this neoclassical country house stood as a testament to architectural brilliance. Sadly, Nuthall Temple met its demise in 1929 when it was demolished. However, through this photograph, we can still appreciate the splendor that once graced its walls. The drawing room depicted here was originally used as a dining room but exudes an air of elegance with its Georgian style columns and roundels adorning the walls. The photographer skillfully captures every intricate detail of this neo-classical masterpiece. From the ornate ceiling to the meticulously designed furniture arrangements, each element tells a story of opulence and sophistication. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' collection on Fine Art Finder, we are transported back to the 18th century - a time when such grand estates were at their zenith. This photograph serves as both a reminder of England's lost houses and an homage to Giles Worsley's dedication to preserving their memory through his work.
