The Soane Pattern IV Marble Fireplace
This chimneypiece exemplifies Soane’s unique ability to re-interpret classical form and produce a design of stunning modernity. The inverted bow to the pilasters and stylised Greek Key motif could only have been conceived by Soane. The chimneypiece was originally commissioned for a property in Grosvenor Square, London in 1803.
