GEORGE IV’s CARLTON HOUSE — Now demolished and contents spread to Buckingham Palace and the National Gallery

This is a fantastic article.  I have been enjoying the detail all morning.  CARLTON HOUSE has such significance in the history of the Royal Family;  the Queen just named her famous horse CARLTON HOUSE.  Note the portico of Carlton House in this watercolor, and you will recognize the NATIONAL GALLERY where the portico columns were reused.  Fabulous

Stunning article.  Full of information.

  1. Thanks for showing these watercolors. I just discovered a quick shot in a documentary on the Queens castles series on TV. Looking at them in detail is a bliss. Bye4now Vic
