Salle à manger de Lansdowne House

Various artists/makers

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 515

On doit à Robert Adam les plans et la décoration intérieure de Lansdowne House, située sur Berkeley Square, à Londres. Dans cette salle à manger d’apparat, le style néoclassique de l’architecte britannique est à son apogée. Outre les colonnes faisant office d’écran et les boiseries sculptées, le décor comporte neuf niches où se dressaient des sculptures antiques (ce sont maintenant des copies). Le joyau de la salle est le décor de plâtre moulé et le riche vocabulaire de l’ornementation classique. Les chaises en acajou de Thomas Chippendale ne sont pas d’origine mais sont du même modèle que celles qui avaient été exécutées pour la maison en 1769.
