This detail, prepared in Crace's workshop, follows exactly the design given and the colours indicated on D.867-1908.

The designs for Burton Closes in Bakewell, Derbyshire, provide a valuable example of Pugin’s domestic interiors. The existence of such a complete set of design drawings and Crace’s coloured trials offer an unusual opportunity to understand Pugin’s original intentions. Burton Closes was a newly built house, in picturesque Elizabethan style, when Pugin and J. G. Crace were commissioned by John Allcard to decorate the house. Allcard commented in 1848 that ‘I am not a little astonished at the Beauty and grandeur of our doing’.

Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin (1812-52) is widely considered as one of the most significant and influential architects, designers and theorists of the 19th century. Following his conversion to Catholicism in 1835, he identified the Gothic style with Christian architecture and his work and writings inspired and framed the Gothic Revival. In 'Contrasts', published in 1836, he condemned classical forms and ardently praised 14th and 15th-century architecture. Pugin is best remembered for his work on the Palace of Westminster.
