Notes

Close to the preparatory perspectives made by Gandy (SM volume 60/205 and SM volume 60/206) though with the addition of five figures in Roman costume. Still in its original handsome frame, it is possible that Soane contemplated exhibiting it at the Royal Academy but he did not do so, and the design for 'A sepulchral church' that he exhibited in 1801 relates to Tyringham Hall.
