Study for Lambeth Palace, from Microcosm of London c. 1808

"Study for Lambeth Palace, from Microcosm of London" is a pencil drawing by Augustus Charles Pugin from c. 1808. The detailed depiction of the interior of Lambeth Palace showcases Pugin’s interest in architectural detail and the Gothic Revival style that he helped popularize. This sketch, part of his larger project "Microcosm of London", highlights his commitment to capturing the architectural beauty of London during the early 19th century. The drawing, now housed at the Art Institute of Chicago, serves as a testament to Pugin's skill and his significant influence on the architectural landscape of England.
