Two Temple Place
Commissioned by William Waldorf Astor in 1895, Two Temple Place, a Neo Gothic gem sits above Victoria Embankment, London. The unique interior almost entirely wood panelled with incredible detail. Commissioned to create a portrait of this unique building I spent late summer following the light around these ornate rooms, trying to bring them to life.
