EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the exterior of the Midland Grand Hotel in St Pancras, London, as it looked in 1877. Designed by the renowned architect Sir George Gilbert Scott, this Victorian Gothic Revival masterpiece was a true architectural marvel of its time. The Midland Grand Hotel was built as part of the St Pancras Railway Station complex, which opened in 1868 and revolutionized travel between London and the north of England. The intricate details of the hotel's facade are on full display in this image, with its ornate stonework, pointed arches, and decorative gargoyles. The use of red brick and white stone creates a striking contrast, while the tall, pointed towers and elaborate chimneys add to the building's grandeur. The large central clock tower, with its ornate clock face and intricate ironwork, dominates the scene and serves as a testament to the attention to detail that went into the design of the hotel. The Midland Grand Hotel was a symbol of the Victorian era's obsession with grandeur and opulence, and this photograph captures its beauty and elegance perfectly. The building's Gothic Revival style was popular during this period, and it can be seen in many other prominent structures of the time, including the Houses of Parliament and the Natural History Museum. Today, the Midland Grand Hotel is still a popular destination for travelers and tourists alike, and its historic exterior continues to draw admiration from all who see it.
