EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history at Schomberg House, located on the prestigious Pall Mall in London. The engraving showcases the breathtaking view from Mr Cosway's Breakfast-Room, offering a glimpse towards the iconic Westminster Abbey. In the foreground sits Mrs Cosway, exuding grace and elegance. Richard Cosway, renowned for his portraiture skills, painted this exquisite portrait of his wife Maria Cosway. Maria herself was an accomplished artist who exhibited her works at the esteemed Royal Academy of Arts. The landscape depicted in this artwork was masterfully painted by William Hodges, RA. Engraved by W. Birch in 1789, this colored engraving is part of the Mayson Beeton Collection and is now preserved within The Historic England Archive. It serves as a testament to both Richard and Maria's artistic talents and their place within London's vibrant art scene during that era. Through this image, we are transported back to a time when Schomberg House stood as a symbol of opulence and sophistication along Pall Mall. It offers us not only a visual feast but also an insight into the lives of two remarkable artists who left an indelible mark on British art history.
