EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a window bay in the Teddington Room at Radnor House, Middlesex. The image is part of Giles Worsley's renowned book "England's Lost Houses" published in 2002. The room, adorned with rococo plasterwork decoration, showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of the eighteenth-century gothic revival era. Radnor House itself has a rich history dating back to its original construction around 1673 by John Hooker. It was later extended from 1741 to 1745 by John Robartes, the 4th Earl of Radnor, who gave it its name. Tragically, this grand house met its demise during World War Two when it was destroyed by a German bomb in September 1940. The photograph beautifully captures the intricate details of the bay window and highlights the grandeur that once filled this now lost architectural gem. Its Victorian gothic style and neo-gothic elements are evident throughout, showcasing an art movement that captivated many during that time. Bridgeman Images' English photographer masterfully captured this moment in time, allowing us to appreciate both the beauty and loss associated with England's lost houses. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of our architectural heritage and invites viewers to reflect on their own connection to history and preservation.
