EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1876, showcasing Earls Court House (formerly known as John Hunter's House) in all its grandeur. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to this historical gem. John Hunter, a prominent figure from the 18th century, acquired Earls Court House in 1764 and made it his residence until his passing in 1793. However, after his death, the house underwent a transformation and became a private asylum for young ladies suffering from nervous disorders. Sadly, this magnificent building met its demise in 1886 when it was demolished. The photograph is sourced from "Old and New London: A Narrative of Its History, Its People, and Its Places" written by Edward Walford. Published by Cassell Petter Galpin & Co. , this publication provides valuable insights into the history of London during that era. Intriguingly captured with a monochrome palette, the image showcases not only the architectural beauty of Earls Court House but also offers glimpses into daily life at that time. The presence of people strolling along the driveway adds depth to the scene while a dog playfully roams around. This print serves as a poignant reminder of how buildings can evolve over time; once an esteemed residence for John Hunter himself turned into an asylum for troubled young women before ultimately meeting its fate. It stands as a testament to both British history and architectural heritage.
