American Silence: The Photographs of Robert Adams - Nevada Museum of Art

The long gallery at Syon house was built in the mid 18th century by Robert Adams it is just over 40m long and houses about 3000 books. Adam’s original scheme was bright pink and blue, typical of his ornate palette in the 1760s. Later in the 19th century a green wash was applied, resulting in the more subdued present appearance. It has appeared in many movies and tv shows, can you list any? #syonhouse #countryhousestyle #england | Michael Adair
