專家說明

This and the following lot, were originally part of a larger group of benches which were used throughout the extensive gardens and grounds at Wynyard Park, presumably as laid out by Frances Anne, Marchioness of Londonderry. Several examples appear in situ in late-19th century photographs, such as the photograph taken of the interior of the Temple of the Three Graces (The Londonderry Album, London, 1978, p. 89).
