EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of Montagu House in Bloomsbury during the 18th century. Originally purchased in 1754 as the first home of the British Museum, this stately building holds great historical significance. In 1757, its gardens were opened to the public, making it a popular destination even before visitors were allowed access to the museum's collections. The symmetrical design of Montagu House is showcased beautifully in this image, highlighting its architectural elegance. The concept of this magnificent structure is further emphasized by its exterior features and well-maintained landscape. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost imagine horse-drawn carriages passing through Great Russell Street outside. Located in London, England, Montagu House stood tall for centuries until it gradually made way for the present-day buildings that now house the British Museum between 1823 and 1852. This monochrome print allows us to appreciate both its historical importance and aesthetic beauty. The credit for capturing this remarkable image goes to an unknown creator but was preserved by E Beresford Chancellor. Through their lens, they have immortalized a piece of history that continues to fascinate us today.
