EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur of the dining room fireplace at Dawpool, Cheshire, as depicted in Giles Worsley's renowned book "England's Lost Houses". The image, taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, showcases a moment frozen in time from a bygone era. The dining room fireplace itself is a testament to Victorian architecture, showcasing intricate wood panelling and elegant columns. It was built between 1882-84 by Richard Norman Shaw for Thomas Henry Ismay, owner of the White Star Line. This opulent space once housed tapestries and boasted a magnificent marble chimneypiece that exuded luxury and sophistication. Sadly, this architectural masterpiece met its demise when it was demolished in 1927. However, through this photograph captured in 1911, we can still appreciate its splendor today. The image allows us to imagine the grand dinners that were held within these walls and glimpse into the lives of those who once inhabited this now-lost house. With its rich history and exquisite details preserved through photography, this print serves as a reminder of England's lost architectural treasures. It transports viewers back to an era where craftsmanship reigned supreme and invites them to marvel at the beauty that once graced our world.
