About the Item

An extremely fine late 18th century Statuary marble chimneypiece of strong architectural character and landscape proportion, after a design by the architect Robert Adam (1728 – 1792). The pilaster jambs are capped by Greek Ionic capitals, possibly quoting the recently discovered Temple of Ilissus in Athens, supporting a refined shelf with a charming cushion bed mould. The jambs carved with delicate Anthemion palmettes in low relief set in a recessed fielded panel. The solid construction of the Statuary marble implies this piece is of Italian manufacture for the English market. A very similar chimneypiece was designed by Robert Adam for his own house at n.4 Adelphi Terrace, as shown in the image here below.
