Shops in New Bond Street
Description
View looking north-east, showing terraced buildings with ground-floor shops at 31-34 New Bond Street, Mayfair. Number 31 has four storeys with a two-window range and is trading on the ground-floor as, "Bond Street Carpets". Three people are looking in the display window. Number 32 has three storeys plus dormer with a one-window range. There is no trading name above the shop, where photo frames can be seen on display. Number 33 has four storeys plus dormer. The ground-floor Georgian-style bay window is flanked by Ionic columns and partially obscured by a parked Ford Transit van. The name, "Sotheby's" can be seen above the ground floor. The central window panel on the first floor is covered by a blind. There is a flagpole visible. Today, numbers 32-33 have been redeveloped into a single building and incorporated into the Sotheby's auction rooms. There is a partial view of number 34, which is a three-storey building plus dormer, trading as, "Sotheby's" auction house. There is an arch-shaped entrance, where decorative wooden doors can be seen. Originally an early eighteenth-century terraced house, the building was altered in the mid-nineteenth century to become auction rooms. It had previously been used as galleries for the French artist, Gustave Dore, a parfumiers and a public house called, "The Black Horse". The cellars were used as stores for paintings when it became an auction house. Sotheby's moved to these new premises in 1917. The building is Grade II listed; listing number 1266836. Today, numbers 32-33 have been redeveloped into a single building and incorporated into the Sotheby's auction rooms. There is a pedestrian in the road.
