c.1756 Architectural Studies of Doors – Georgian Doorway Prints (Set of Two)
Timeless Georgian Architecture for Refined Interiors
Invite the grandeur of 18th-century Georgian architecture indoors with this distinguished pair of architectural prints. Revived from c.1756 copper-plate engravings, these studies depict two classical doorway designs: the richly ornamented Corinthian order, recognised by its leafy capitals, and the elegantly restrained Ionic order, defined by its scroll-like volutes.
Museum-Grade Restoration
Digitally restored in our Lancashire studio, every fluting, fillet, and folio has been carefully balanced and refined. The result is a pair of architectural studies with exceptional clarity and tonal depth, faithful to the originals yet perfectly suited to contemporary interiors.
A Perfectly Balanced Pair
Designed as a matching set, these prints can be hung side-by-side, stacked, or positioned to frame a doorway or window. Their neutral stone palette pairs effortlessly with muted heritage tones, bare plaster walls, or bold modern colour schemes.
