“Galerie. R. de. Ch. Gloriette.” Mounted photograph of the Chapel Corridor looking towards the Salon. Two torcheres of Rateau’s design can be seen on the right. Numbered 30/24.
See P3/40/4/62 for a drawing of a torchere of a very similar design.
The photographs in series PH15 were formerly part of an album presented by Rateau to Olive Wilson Filmer on 10 May 1930 to mark the end of his work at Leeds Castle. Notes in the Leeds Castle archive catalogue indicate that there were originally two albums, which over time were broken up and the contents mixed up or dispersed.
