"Lea Castle, Worcestershire, View in Ante-room, Looking North" is a watercolor drawing by John Carter, a prominent English architect and antiquarian, depicting an interior view of the ante-room at Lea Castle in Worcestershire, England. This work was created between 1811 and 1821, while Carter was active in architectural drawings and investigations. The drawing is a perspective view of the room, showcasing its domed ceiling, intricate detailing, and elegant chandelier, likely a common feature in the homes of the wealthy at the time. The piece is now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
