2907010 Pitzhanger Manor, Ealing, November 7th 1800 (pen & ink with w/c on paper) by Soane, John (1752-1837); Courtesy of the Trustees of Sir John Soanes Museum, London; (add.info.: Pitzhanger Manor House, in Ealing (west London), was owned from 1800 to 1810 by the architect John Soane, who radically rebuilt it. Soane intended it as a country villa for entertaining and eventually for passing to his elder son. He demolished most of the existing building except the two-storey south wing built in 1768 by George Dance, who had been his first employer. In the late twentieth century, an extensive restoration returned much of the building back to Soanes design. It is now a showcase of Soanes design and also hosts exhibitions and events for visitors.); eSir John Soanes Museum; British, out of copyright

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur and elegance of Pitzhanger Manor in Ealing on November 7th, 1800. The pen and ink with watercolor on paper artwork by John Soane showcases his architectural masterpiece, which he meticulously rebuilt during his ownership from 1800 to 1810. Soane's vision for Pitzhanger Manor was to create a country villa that would serve as a venue for entertaining guests and eventually be passed down to his eldest son. In this image, we see the stunning facade of the manor house, its neoclassical design exuding timeless beauty. The two-storey south wing built by George Dance in 1768 remains intact amidst Soane's extensive demolition and reconstruction efforts. A figure can be seen strolling along the path leading up to the entrance, adding a touch of human presence to this architectural marvel. Today, Pitzhanger Manor stands as a testament to Soane's genius and creativity. After an extensive restoration project in the late twentieth century, much of the building has been returned back to its original splendor according to Soane's design. It now serves as both a showcase for his innovative architecture and hosts exhibitions and events for visitors. This remarkable painting is part of Sir John Soanes Museum collection in London, courtesy of the Trustees. Its depiction not only highlights the beauty of Pitzhanger Manor but also offers us a glimpse into British history during the Regency era when such magnificent mansions were symbols of wealth and refinement.
