Title
Shops in New Bond Street
Description
View looking west, showing the front elevations of a row of mid to late nineteenth-century, terraced buildings with ground-floor shops at 147- 150 New Bond Street, Mayfair. Number 147, a four-storey building plus attic, is trading as, "Wildenstein", art dealer. A pair of Corinthian columns can be seen framing the entrance. Number 148 is trading as, "The Fine Art Society". Built in 1876 to designs by E. W. Godwin, it has an arch-shaped first-floor window where sculpted figures of two children holding a shield, can be seen. There is a three-window range and a flagpole can be seen above a pediment. There are spotlights visible in the ground-floor display windows. A low-level security grille can be seen between a pair of Doric columns at the entrance. The building is Grade II listed; listing number 1266795. Number 149 is a four-storey building plus attic, trading as, "The Antique Porcelain Co Ltd". It was founded in 1946 by Hanns Weinberg, a German Jewish refugee who built up a large collection of eighteenth-century porcelain. Antiques can be seen in the display window which is protected by a security grille at the entrance. A flagpole can be seen above a decorative iron balustrade. Ghost writing can be seen above the entrance, which says, "Louis Vuitton". Today, this shop is a high-end fashion retailer. There is a partial view of number 150 where female mannequins can be seen in the ground-floor display window lit by spotlights above.
