Joseph Gandy’s watercolor depicts what would become the “Dome Area” of John Soane’s house in Lincoln’s Inn Fields, London. The image illustrates how Soane, a prominent architect and collector, conceived of the space while it was still in the planning stages: the watercolor was produced in 1811, a year before the Dome Area’s construction.
