Dome and Pavilion Gardens, Brighton, early 20th century
Dome and Pavilion Gardens, Brighton, early 20th century. Postcard from Valentines Series. The Brighton Dome was built for the Prince of Wales (the future King George IV), who regularly frequented Brighton, in 1805. The Pavilion was originally built in 1786-1787 by Henry Holland, also for the Prince of Wales. It was added to by William Porden in 1804-1806 and remodelled by John Nash between 1815 and 1822 in a European interpretation of Indian and Chinese architectural styles

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the early 20th century, capturing the grandeur of Dome and Pavilion Gardens in Brighton. The postcard from Valentines Series showcases two iconic architectural marvels - the Brighton Dome and the Royal Pavilion. The Brighton Dome, constructed in 1805 for Prince George IV (the future King George IV), stands tall with its magnificent onion dome. This elegant structure was a favorite destination for the prince during his frequent visits to Brighton. Adjacent to it is the Royal Pavilion, originally built by Henry Holland in 1786-1787 for Prince George IV as well. Over time, it underwent transformations by William Porden and John Nash between 1804 and 1822, resulting in a stunning blend of Indian and Chinese architectural styles. In this monochrome image, we see people strolling through the beautifully landscaped gardens surrounding these regal buildings. Lush trees and vibrant plants create a serene atmosphere that complements the exotic charm of chinoiserie-inspired architecture. This print not only captures an exquisite moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to England's rich history. It reminds us of King George IV's fascination with India's culture while showcasing his opulent taste through these remarkable structures. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to an era where nature harmoniously coexisted with man-made wonders, leaving us captivated by their timeless beauty.
