Description:
Interior view of the boudoir at Standish Hall, Wigan, looking towards the fireplace. There is an elaborate plasterwork ceiling and ornamented panelling on the walls. The fireplace is as high as the ceiling and bears two coat of arms, one is the Royal Arms of the British monarch, bearing the lion and the unicorn, these arms are framed by three terminal figures (human top half, columnar bottom).The mantelpiece has porcelain figurines and a mantel clock in the centre. To the side of the fireplace is a piano. The Standishes held the manor of Standish and Standish Hall estate from the thirteenth century. Following the extinction of the male line upon the death of Ralph Standish in 1755, the estate passed through female lines until it was sold and broken up after the death of Henry Nouailles Widdrington Standish in 1920. There are some very small flaws in the print itself, likely sustained in the printing process rather than a flaw to the original plate or negative.
