Sala da pranzo di Lansdowne House

1766–69
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 515
Ubicata a Berkeley Square, a Londra, la Lansdowne House con i suoi interni fu progettata da Robert Adam. La grande sala da pranzo è uno dei massimi esempi dello stile neoclassico dell’architetto inglese. Divisa da un colonnato e ornata in legno intagliato, la sala contiene nove nicchie progettate per ospitare sculture antiche, oggi in realtà solo copie. L’aspetto più splendido della sala è la decorazione in stucco ricca di motivi tratti dalla classicità. Le sedie di mogano ai lati della stanza, se pur non parte dell’arredamento originale, sono di Thomas Chippendale e dello stesso modello di quelle fornite al proprietario della Lansdowne House nel 1769.
