]n 1950 Richardson began work on the reconstruction of the South Wing of Somerset House, which had been extensively damaged during the Second World War.
See lot 181 for a note on Richardson's involvement with the reconstruction of London following the Second World War.

We are grateful to John Harris and Charles Hind for their assistance with cataloguing the group of architectural drawings.
