EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the opulent world of Chesterfield House, London, as captured in these previously unpublished photographs from the Tatler of 20th October 1909. The interior of this grand Edwardian mansion, which once belonged to the Dowager Lady Burton, is a feast for the eyes, showcasing the height of elegance and opulence of the early 20th century. The Dowager Lady Burton, also known as Lallie, Lady Burton, was renowned for her impeccable taste and style. In these images, we see her in the comfort of her own home, surrounded by the finest furnishings and decor. The dining room, with its ornate gold-leafed walls and intricately carved wooden panels, sets the stage for grand feasts and brilliant functions. The hallway, with its high ceilings, ornate plasterwork, and elegant portraits, is a testament to the grandeur of the past. But the Dowager Lady Burton's tenure at Chesterfield House was coming to an end. The Duke and Duchess of Roxburghe were set to take possession of the house, fully furnished, for the next five years. The mansion, which had once been the scene of many a brilliant function, was about to be reclaimed by its new owners. These photographs offer a rare glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of opulence and elegance, when the interiors of London's grandest homes were a reflection of their owners' wealth and status. The Dowager Lady Burton may have been leaving Chesterfield House, but her legacy of style and sophistication would live on.
