Purpose

Preliminary design for a ceiling for an unknown circular room for Lady Shelburne (1)

Notes

This circular room for Lady Shelburne is unknown. It might have been her dressing room in the original house, but this is speculation. The only other vaguely appropriate room was the oval ante room, which was executed by Adam to unknown designs, and then lost during the alteration works of the nineteenth century.
