Description

A watercolour of the Rose Satin Drawing Room at Carlton House, as it appeared in around 1817. The walls were lined with luxurious rose satin. Among the paintings hung on the wall can be seen Teniers's Peasants Dancing (RCIN 406363) and Rubens's Self Portrait (RCIN 400156).
This is one of a series of views of the interiors of the royal palaces made at the instigation of William Henry Pyne between 1816 and 1819. The views were published by subscription, under the title History of the Royal Residences. A set of the views, some original watercolours, other heavily-coloured prints, were acquired by George, Prince Regent, for his library at Carlton House.
Descriptive Medium: 'Pencil, watercolour, bodycolour and gum arabic', 'pencil, bodycolour, gum arabic', 'watercolour painting'
