EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the magnificent west end of Queen Anne's Orangery at Kensington Palace. The image is taken from 'The Country Houses of Sir John Vanbrugh' by Jeremy Musson, published in 2008. Originally attributed to Sir John Vanbrugh, it is now believed that Nicholas Hawksmoor was the true designer of this architectural marvel. Built in 1704-05 for Queen Anne, the orangery served as a summer dining room within the royal residence. Its grandeur and elegance are evident in this print. The photo showcases the impeccable garden architecture and English baroque style that defined the era. Set against the backdrop of Kensington Gardens, this historic structure stands tall with its intricate details and symmetrical design. It exudes an air of sophistication and regality that befits its royal origins. Captured by an anonymous English photographer from the 20th century, this photograph beautifully encapsulates the essence of this eighteenth-century masterpiece. With meticulous attention to detail, it highlights every aspect of its exterior beauty. This print serves as a testament to both architectural brilliance and artistic prowess. It invites viewers into a world where history meets artistry, showcasing not only a remarkable greenhouse but also capturing a moment frozen in time.
