EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and experience the elegance and sophistication of an Edwardian music room, as captured in this stunning photograph taken at Thornton Manor in Merseyside in 1903. The music room, added to the manor in 1902, serves as a beautiful art gallery illuminated by the natural light filtering in through the windows in the barrel roof. The heart of this exquisite space is the grand organ, proudly built into the seating area to the right. Its intricate design and ornate details reflect the craftsmanship and attention to detail that were hallmarks of the Edwardian era. The organ's presence not only served a functional purpose for musical performances but also added to the room's aesthetic appeal. The furniture in the music room is equally impressive, with ornate chairs and tables adorned with intricate carvings and rich fabrics. The chairs, with their high backs and plush cushions, exude comfort and luxury, inviting guests to sit and enjoy the music or the art on display. The room's decor is a testament to the opulence and grandeur of the Edwardian period. The walls are adorned with intricate patterns and textures, while the floor is covered in a plush carpet that adds to the room's warmth and coziness. The overall effect is one of refinement and elegance, transporting us back to a time when music and art were cherished and celebrated in the most beautiful of surroundings.
