London Interiors from archives of country life

London Interiors from archives of country life

John Cornforth

Many of London’s historic houses and even greater numbers of domestic interiors have been lost to us since 1939, as a result of political and social changes, war and a tradition of continual rebuilding

A collection of photographs from the archives of the magazine Country Life, which form a remarkable and evocative record of houses as they were in a past that now seems almost impossibly remote - the era of the great political hostesses in their Park Lane Mansions, of society beauties in smart Art Deco flats and painters at work in Holland Park.
