Her Majesty's Visit to Castle Howard - the Reception in the Great Hall, 1850. Creator: Unknown

Her Majesty's Visit to Castle Howard - the Reception in the Great Hall, 1850. Queen Victoria is a guest of the Earl of Carlisle at Castle Howard in Yorkshire. The hall...is extremely picturesque...There are piers carrying arches supporting a domical roof, in the centre of which is a large opening, giving light into the body of the hall from windows in the drum of the cupola...The lighting-up of the hall for the occasion of her Majesty's visit was beautiful in the extreme. Round the opening in the dome is a gallery of admirably wrought iron-work, and above this the loyal inscription of "God save the Queen" was displayed in large letters of jets of gas, forming a brilliant circlet of light...on one side [is] a fireplace of great boldness and originality of design...Antique statues and busts are placed on pedestals, and on the fireplace...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850
