Légende

'The Chapter House Previous to its Restoration', (1881). The Chapter House at Westminster Abbey in London dates from the 1250s and is one of the largest of its kind, octagonal in shape with an imposing central pillar. It is seen here in a delapidated state with missing floorboards, before it was restored in Victorian times by Sir George Gilbert Scott. From "Old and New London: A Narrative of Its History, Its People, and Its Places. Westminster and the Western Suburbs", by Edward Walford, Vol. III. [Cassell, Petter, Galpin & Co., London, Paris & New York, 1881]
