WILLIAM WYLD (1806-89)
St George’s Hall, Liverpool
dated 1852RCIN 920219
The royal family visited Liverpool in October 1851 and particularly admired St George’s Hall, housing the assize court and concert hall. The colourful interiors may have inspired the decoration of the Ballroom at Buckingham Palace a few years later. William Wyld, British artist based in France, visited Liverpool in 1852 to make this record.
