EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph transports us back to 19th century London, specifically to the elegant Compton Room in Canonbury Tower. The print, created by an English School artist, showcases the exquisite architecture and historical significance of this remarkable building. The Compton Room is bathed in soft light streaming through large arched windows, illuminating its grandeur. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect of the room's design - from the intricately carved wooden panels on the walls to the ornate ceiling adorned with delicate plasterwork. This space exudes a sense of opulence and refinement that was characteristic of its time. Originally published as an illustration for The Building News in January 1891, this lithograph captures not only the physical beauty but also the historical importance of Canonbury Tower. Built during medieval times, it stands as a testament to London's rich architectural heritage. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported into a different era - one where craftsmanship and artistry were highly valued. It serves as a reminder that even amidst modernity, there are still glimpses of history waiting to be discovered within our bustling cities.
