Title
Interior of Drapers' Hall in Throgmorton Avenue
Description
A view of the Livery Hall of the Drapers' Hall, Throgmorton Avenue, City of London. The hall was originally built after a fire in 1772, enlarged in the 1860s and then substantially redecorated after bomb damage in October 1940. A number of the Company's royal portraits can be seen hanging on the walls between marble columns. From the far end, these depict William II (by John Gibson), Queen Anne, George II and George II (all three by Sir Godfrey Knellor). Approximately half of the ceiling is visible with its ceiling panels depicting scenes from Shakespeare, completed by Herbert Draper between 1903 and 1910. A high, narrow open gallery with a stone balustrade and mirrored recesses running around the hall can also be seen. Drapers´ Hall was Grade II listed in 1975; listing number 1358902.
