Notes
The overall form of this door frame is a more modest variant of the doorway to George Bullock’s ‘Grecian Rooms’ probably at Tenterden Street (rather than Piccadilly); see Clive Wainwright, et al., George Bullock: Cabinet-Maker, London, 1988, fig. 2, reproduced here to the right.
A similar marble doorway was at Panshanger (demolished), where Bullock’s regular collaborator William Atkinson was the architect – reproduced here to the right
