Hall of the Athenaeum
Print of the imposing pillared hall of the London Club. First known as "The Society", and with a membership consisting only of artists, writers and scientists, the Athenaeum was founded in 1824 and enjoyed the reputation of being "the most intellectually elite of all London's clubs".
Engraved by William Radclyffe (1783-1855) from an original study by George Belton Moore. Originally produced for the part-work "London Interiors : A Grand National Exhibition" (London : 1841-1844).
