Lansdowne House (original) (raw)
Lansdowne House ist ein nur teilweise erhaltenes Herrenhaus aus dem 18. Jahrhundert im Südwesten des Berkeley Square im Stadtzentrum der britischen Hauptstadt London. Es wurde von Robert Adam als privates Stadthaus entworfen und gehörte den größten Teil seiner Nutzungszeit als Wohnhaus der Familie Petty-FitzMaurice, Marquesses of Lansdowne. Seit 1935 residiert dort der Lansdowne Club. Die Aufteilung des Anwesens war sehr ungewöhnlich: Es gab einen großen Vorgarten, der die gesamte Südseite des Platzes einnahm. Das Herrenhaus selbst zeigte mit seiner schmalen Ostfassade auf diesen Vorgarten. Dieses Arrangement eröffnete dem südlich davon am Piccadilly gelegenen Devonshire House freien Blick auf den Berkeley Square.

| dbo:abstract | Lansdowne House ist ein nur teilweise erhaltenes Herrenhaus aus dem 18. Jahrhundert im Südwesten des Berkeley Square im Stadtzentrum der britischen Hauptstadt London. Es wurde von Robert Adam als privates Stadthaus entworfen und gehörte den größten Teil seiner Nutzungszeit als Wohnhaus der Familie Petty-FitzMaurice, Marquesses of Lansdowne. Seit 1935 residiert dort der Lansdowne Club. Die Aufteilung des Anwesens war sehr ungewöhnlich: Es gab einen großen Vorgarten, der die gesamte Südseite des Platzes einnahm. Das Herrenhaus selbst zeigte mit seiner schmalen Ostfassade auf diesen Vorgarten. Dieses Arrangement eröffnete dem südlich davon am Piccadilly gelegenen Devonshire House freien Blick auf den Berkeley Square. Bekannte Eigner von Lansdowne House waren: * John Stuart, 3. Earl of Bute, britischer Premierminister (1762–1763) * William Petty, 2. Earl of Shelburne (später 1. Marquess of Lansdowne), britischer Premierminister (1782–1783) * William Pitt der Jüngere, britischer Premierminister (1783–1801 und 1804–1806) * William Waldorf Astor, 1. Viscount Astor, damals reichster Mann der USA (1891–1893) * Archibald Primrose, 5. Earl of Rosebery, Staatsmann der britischen Liberalen und Premierminister (1894–1895) * Harry Gordon Selfridge, Gründer des Kaufhauses Selfridges In den 1930er-Jahren beschloss die Stadtverwaltung, eine Verbindungsstraße vom Berkeley Square zur Curzon Street zu bauen. Dies machte den Abriss aller vorderen Räume von Lansdowne House notwendig. Der von Adam entworfene Salon wurde ausgebaut und im Philadelphia Museum of Art ausgestellt, während das Speisezimmer an das Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York ging. Die Sammlerstücke des Hauses, wie die Amazone von Lansdowne und der Hercules von Lansdowne, wurden ebenfalls von US-amerikanischen Museen gekauft. Die Fassade wurde in modifizierter Form vorne an das Rumpfhaus angefügt. Am 1. Mai 1935 eröffnete im Lansdowne House der Lansdowne Club als „gesellschaftlicher und athletischer Anwohner-Club für Mitglieder von gesellschaftlichem Stand“. Später wurde ein großes Geschäftshaus in den Vorgarten am Südende des Berkeley Square gebaut (heute Nr. 55–59). Dieses neue Gebäude erbte den Namen des alten Hauses, während das Haus Fitzmaurice Place Nr. 9 (das Rumpfhaus) noch am alten Standort steht. Seit 2000 wurden die Räume des immer noch dort residierenden Lansdowne Club ausgedehnten Renovierungen unterzogen. (de) Lansdowne House now 9 Fitzmaurice Place is the remaining part of a building to the south of Berkeley Square in central London, England, not to be confused with 57 Berkeley Square – opposite – a much later quadrilateral building which takes its name as an extra line of address. The name was for two decades Shelb(o)urne House, then its title matched its owning family's elevation to a higher peerage in 1784. It was frequently let, as a whole, to families of very high wealth or income. Some of its 18th-century interiors, among the best in London, were taken elsewhere. It was occupied by three British prime ministers, William Waldorf Astor, 1st Viscount Astor, widely believed to be the richest man in America at the time of his tenancy (1891–1893) and by Harry Gordon Selfridge in the 1920s. The owning family sold the property in 1929, two years after the death of the 5th Marquess, a prominent government frontbencher (cabinet minister). The local authority had built an approach road in 1931 which saw the loss of approximately half of the rooms of its greater wing; it is today one of two buildings which open onto Fitzmaurice Place but is known as 9 Fitzmaurice Place. The surviving extent was granted Grade II* Listed Building status in 1970. (en) Lansdowne House è un edificio a sud-ovest di Berkeley Square, nel centro di Londra. È stata progettata da Robert Adam come casa privata e per la maggior parte del suo tempo come residenza appartenne alla famiglia Petty-FitzMaurice, marchesi di Lansdowne. Dal 1935, è stata la sede del Lansdowne Club. Il posizionamento della struttura era piuttosto insolita. Aveva un grande giardino frontale che occupava tutto il lato meridionale della piazza, che si affacciava sul lato. Questa disposizione ha dato a Devonshire House, su Piccadilly, un aspetto più aperto alla piazza. Nel 1930, l'amministrazione comunale ha deciso di costruire un collegamento stradale da Berkeley Square a Curzon Street. Ciò ha richiesto la rimozione di tutte le camere di Lansdowne House. Adam's Drawing Room è stata rimossa e installata presso il Philadelphia Museum of Art e la sala da pranzo è andata al Metropolitan Museum of Art a New York. Le collezioni della casa, sono state acquistate da altri musei americani. (it) |
