EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Elevation for the West Front of Parliament House, Dublin" by James Gandon. Created around 1787, this pen and brush with brown ink artwork on laid paper measures 25.1x38.3 cm and is housed in the esteemed Yale Center for British Art's Paul Mellon Collection in the USA. Gandon's masterful depiction highlights the grandeur of Dublin's Parliament House, an architectural marvel that seamlessly blends neo-classical elements with Irish heritage. The artist skillfully incorporates various features such as the iconic Ionic order columns, rusticated walls exuding strength and character, and a meticulously detailed entablature adorned with relief panels. The focal point of this elevation lies within its pedimented window, beautifully framed by intricate niches housing sculptures that pay homage to Ireland's rich history. The facade stands tall and proud against a backdrop of lush greenery, symbolizing both power and harmony. Every detail has been carefully considered - from the frieze adorning the upper section to the arch gracefully spanning across multiple levels. Gandon's vision effortlessly captures not only architectural brilliance but also a sense of national identity. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back to late 18th-century Dublin where political decisions were made within these hallowed halls. This artwork serves as a testament to Ireland's enduring legacy while showcasing Gandon's exceptional talent as an architect-turned-artist.
