See E.110-1939 to E.113-1939.\r\n\r\nJ.G. Crace worked for the 6th Duke of Devonshire at Chatsworth and was asked to decorate the main rooms of Lismore Castle. Pugin was reluctant to provide designs because he knew little about the family. He charged £20 for the set of drawings in 1850. It is probably that much of Pugin's detail was altered in execution. Crace supervised the work which took some time to complete. He provided furniture and fittings after Pugin's death.\r\n\r\nAugustus Welby Northmore Pugin (1812-52) is widely considered as one of the most significant and influential architects, designers and theorists of the 19th century. Following his conversion to Catholicism in 1835, he identified the Gothic style with Christian architecture and his work and writings inspired and framed the Gothic Revival. In 'Contrasts', published in 1836, he condemned classical forms and ardently praised 14th and 15th-century architecture. Pugin is best remembered for his work on the Palace of Westminster.","physicalDescription":"Details of wallpaper and other decoration for great dining room. Scale: 1/4 full size. The design for the wallpaper consists of diamond-shaped panels, the top borders of these diamonds outlined with scrolls bearing the Devonshire motto 'Cavendo Tutus' and filled with a foliage motif, alternating with another panel with the motif of the head of a buck. Also shown is a big circle with an eight-lobed border of foliage motifs enclosing a standing buck.","artistMakerPerson":[{"name":{"text":"A.W.N.
