EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the grandeur of Peterborough House, located in Fulham, which is now a part of southwest London. The house, originally known as Brightwells or Rightwells, underwent extensive remodeling and was rebuilt in the early Stuart style. It served as a gathering place for intellectuals and renowned figures of its time. Charles, the 3rd Earl of Peterborough and Monmouth, hosted esteemed guests such as Alexander Pope, Jonathan Swift, John Locke, among many others at this magnificent residence. This historic snapshot from "Old and New London: A Narrative of Its History" by Edward Walford takes us back to the 17th century when Peterborough House flourished as an intellectual hub. The architectural beauty of this British country house is evident in every detail captured by the unknown creator behind this photograph. The image transports us to a different era with its monochrome charm that accentuates both the building's exterior and its surrounding landscape. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history frozen in time, we can't help but appreciate how it represents not only England's rich heritage but also serves as a testament to the cultural significance bestowed upon Peterborough House during its heyday.
